TRAWDEN, Laneshawbridge, Wycoller and Foulridge are the latest areas to benefit from an increase in the number of Police Community Support Officers (PCSO) in Pendle.
PCSO Robert Beck, a former town centre warden in Keighley, has joined community beat manager Mark Whitehead and a team of neighbourhood response officers on patrol.
Football fanatic Robert, who not only plays the game but also manages a six-a-side football team, says he is looking forward to his new role and in particular ensuring that those responsible for criminal and anti-social behaviour are shown the red card.
He said: "I worked as a town centre warden for three years before joining the police so I am used to being on patrol and working with different people and agencies to tackle problems.
"I think being a PCSO will be similar and I am looking forward to getting out and about and meeting people to discuss, and hopefully resolve, any problems they may be experiencing with regards to crime and disorder."
PCSO Beck can be contacted direct on mobile 07985 519224 or voicemail 01282 472987.
