Police visit to Welwyn’s Community Café

Officers from the Welwyn Hatfield Neighbourhood Policing Team visited the Community Café at St Mary’s Church, Welwyn on Tuesday (27 February).

As part of her community engagement work, PCSO Anne Devine began the morning helping to serve tea and coffee to the attendees. She was then joined by PCs Mitch Cartwright and Reegan Dixon who spent time chatting with the residents and answering any questions they had about their role in the local community.

PCSO Anne Devine said: “We had a brilliant time at the café. Meeting the local community in informal settings like this is an important part of neighbourhood policing as it helps to break down barriers and gives the public confidence to report any problems to the police.”
