⚽️ Building positive relationships in our community! 👮‍♂️

Leith Community Officers recently attended Friday Night Lights, where they had a successful and positive engagement with the young people taking part in the football initiative.

Friday Night Lights provides a safe, positive environment for young people to come together through sport, helping to encourage positive choices and reduce the risk of anti-social behaviour.

Building and maintaining positive relationships between Police Scotland and young people is vital to strengthening trust, breaking down barriers, and ensuring our officers are approachable and visible within the community. Engagements like these provide valuable opportunities to get to know young people, listen to their perspectives and build mutual respect outside of traditional policing situations.

By continuing to work together with local partners and community initiatives, we can help create stronger relationships, safer neighbourhoods, and more positive opportunities for our young people. 🤝

A police officer who is cycling over 700 miles for charity is over halfway through his journey.

PC Ross Bell is raising awareness of the charity Blue Light Minds, who provide free, confidential, evidence-based trauma-focused therapy to Scotland's emergency service workers.

He arrived this afternoon at Police Scotland Headquarters, Tulliallan and was welcomed and congratulated by Assistant Chief Constable Wendy Middleton and Superintendent June Peebles.

As a registered Scottish charity, Blue Light Minds deliver education and awareness training to serving, former and future emergency service workers helping to improve understanding of psychological trauma, reduce stigma and encourage early access to support.

PC Bell was joined today by George Nedley from the Scottish Police Credit Union, as he reaches day 13 of his cycle.

New recruits who joined Police Scotland in September were provided with background on the event and the importance of seeking help and support when required.

The journey continues to Edinburgh tomorrow, before heading back to Dumfries and Galloway towards the end of the week. 🚴‍♂️
