Inspector James Offer of Purbeck Police, said:

“Purbeck Neighbourhood Policing Team will have a stall on Swanage seafront every Thursday during the summer holidays.

“After a year where we’ve been unable to meet you face to face, and where many of our larger ‘engagement’ events have been unable to take place, these are great opportunities for us to meet residents and visitors.

“Our partner organisations will be joining us on some of the dates, which will be advertised on the Dorset Police website and social media. We look forward to seeing you there.”
