We were also very proud to achieveCommunity Security Trust (CST)accreditation in 2015, which has enabledus to strengthen our work with theJewish community in the region. And wewere pleased to be part of the teaminvolved in upgrading town centresecurity in Snaith, working in partnershipwith the local and businesscommunities, town council and thepolice force.
