    I joined Dyfed Powys Police in April 1985 and have served in the county of Powys at Brecon, Newtown and Ystradgynlais Police Stations. I have worked within the Road Traffic Department, as a Custody Sergeant and as a Response Sergeant.

    I have now undertaken the role of Neighbourhood Management Sergeant for Breconshire and will work alongside my colleague Sergeant Adele Pitt. This is a new role that will provide support to the existing Neighbourhood Management Teams within Breconshire.

    Being a local person who was educated at Brecon High School I am keen to work with the communities of Breconshire and provide a service that addresses the issues that have been identified as being of concern to each community. This will be achieved with the support of our partners with whom we have already built an excellent working relationship.

This important work will be delivered along with partnership agencies, which will ensure that the area remains one of the safest places to live, work and visit in England and Wales.
