MINI POLICE: Today the Mini Police did their Community Engagement event. For this we and Rotherham Central NPT went to Liberty Church Internship foodbank in Masborough. The Mini Police then found out all about how Liberty Church support people in Rotherham by offering food parcels, hot food and friendship, should they need it.

The Mini Police then helped pack up food packages for the church to give to those in need. Then they were shown around the church when their volunteers explained all the other things they do to support their local community.

Thank you for making the children feel so welcome and taking time away from your volunteering to show them how you operate. You are doing a fantastic job!

The Mini Police then used the speed gun to check drivers were sticking to the 20mph limit on the road outside school
