2666 👋

Its Saturday afternoon and very shortly the backshift will be commencing their tour of duty.

In line with our regular night time economy work - we'll have teams deployed across the district on "Op Regulate". This operation is designed to support the night life in many of our town centres. 🤝

Not only will officers be on hand to deal with any incidents arising, they will be proactively visiting licensed premises. This is to maintain contact with our publicans, ensure compliance with licensing requirements and in effect work to reduce the likelihood of incidents occurring in the first place. 📉 ✅

If you are heading out tonight - have fun, enjoy yourself and know when to call time ⏰

Out on the Beat: Kendal Canal Path
PCSO Hayley and PCSO Lambert were out on foot patrol along the Kendal canal path today.

The main mission?
Checking the area for illegal e-bikes and keeping the community safe.
The actual result?
Getting absolutely soaked. While they were on the lookout for anti-social riding, the only thing pouring down the path today was the classic Cumbrian rain.
No illegal bikes were spotted—just plenty of puddles.
Thank you to the brave walkers who smiled through the downpour with us.
PCSO Hayley and PCSO Lambert will be back out on the beat soon (hopefully with drier weather).
Stay safe and dry out there!
