| “I just wanted to commend them for helping us when they didn't have to, and if it wasn't for them being there, I would have started stressing and my son might have missed his race.”

Whilst supporting the recent IRONKIDS event, two officers helped a member of the public whose car had broken down.

The member of the public has since contacted us to praise the officers who quick to offer their help: “I was taking my son and the rest of my family to the IRONKIDS event in Bolton town centre, which my son was racing in.

“Unfortunately, as soon as we pulled onto a car park in the town centre, my car broke down in the middle of the car park, and it was very busy – I was starting to panic. Luckily for me, there were two police officers there who offered to help push my car to a safer place.

“I just wanted to commend them for helping us when they didn't have to, and if it wasn't for them being there, I would have started stressing, and my son might have missed his race.

“I just wanted to say thank you so much, as I didn't get their names or badge numbers, but I really appreciate their help. My son got to his race on time. Honestly, just top-tier people!”

Our officers are on hand to offer help and support to members of the public.
