Congratulations to Twerton police officer Adge Secker who last night received Avon & Somersets Police beat manager of the year.
I remember Adge arriving in Tweron just over 5 years Go telling me how he was going to sort some of the crime issues in the area.
On Adge's watch we have seen a remarkable drop in the crime rate in Twerton taking it from one of the highest crime areas to one of the lowest, arrival and dismissal of the ill fated Pact meetings.
To put it quite bluntly Twerton has had a remarkable turnaround partly due to the organisation of Adge's team in crime reduction.
Well done Adge the award was along time in coming but worth waiting for.
On Saturday just to Celebrate Adge's success I will be spending an hour walking the streets of Twerton with our now famous beat manager.
We will be out and about between 12.30 & 1.30 pm so please stop us if you have something to report or just want a chat.
