❤️‍🩹 No matter how dark the moment, they are not forgotten”.

Deputy Commissioner Ellie Vesey-Thompson recently promoted the Forcer Protocol at Surrey’s Royal British Legion poppy appeal launch held at the Army Training Centre in Pirbright.

The Forcer Protocol is an online form that is able to securely hold vital information in a missing person emergency. It is a scheme for veterans, current serving military personnel, reservists and supporting members of the Armed Forces family.

At this time of year, our thoughts start to turn to Remembrance Day & the sacrifices our Armed Forces & their families make 🌺

So it was a real pleasure for Lisa Townsend PCC to pay a timely visit to the & District branch of the Royal British Legion yesterday to speak to veterans & members about the current policing picture in Surrey.

The RBL have branches across the county and are a force for good in our communities. They do an amazing job supporting ex-service personnel & their families.

Thanks for inviting us!

Have you ever been targeted by door-to-door workmen? Or perhaps felt like you’ve been pressured into having work done to your house or charged too much for home improvements?

These types of tactics are used by rogue traders and police teams and partners in Surrey are cracking down on this type of criminality.

Lisa Townsend PCC joined officers from Surrey and Kent on a special operation at Clackets Lane services on the M25 to target these criminals who are operating in our county.

In just one day of the week-long operation 26 vehicles were stopped with over 80% leading to prosecutions.

“It’s not just harmless banter. It can leave those targeted feeling humiliated, threatened and frightened. That is not okay.”

Lisa Townsend PCC joined the relaunch of Surrey Police’s ‘Jog On’ campaign aimed at ensuring women & girls feel safe exercising in public places in Surrey.

The operation sees female police officers out jogging in communities across the county. Where they are targeted by passing motorists who may shout lewd or explicit comments – police teams waiting further down the road are alerted to stop the driver.

Proportionate action can then be taken which could be to warn and educate drivers about their behaviour. Where offences are identified – the appropriate action will be taken.

The Force has recorded more than 100 incidents of sex-based harassment since new legislation came into force in April this year.

During our Policing Your Community roadshow this summer, one of the issues residents raised time and time again was the scourge of illegal e-scooters and e-bikes in our communities.

A brand-new crackdown has now been launched in Surrey called Operation Scramble which will see dedicated patrols take place in hot-spot areas.

Where officers find illegal e-bikes and e-scooters being used - they will use their powers to seize them and send them for destruction.

Lisa Townsend PCC was out last night for the first operation in and will be joining police teams in other parts of the county in the coming weeks.

She said: “Residents have told me loud and clear they have had enough and we have listened to those concerns. The result is this operation which aims to crackdown on illegal riding and take these often-dangerous machines off our streets for good.

“We know their use can often be linked to wider criminal activity and the message is clear – we want to make Surrey an illegal e-bike and e-scooter free county.”

A brand-new football project helping young people across Surrey has been launched thanks to funding secured by Lisa Townsend PCC
The Surrey FA ‘Stepover’ programme will work with young people aged 12-18 across Epsom and Ewell, Guildford, Reigate and Banstead, Tandridge and Woking, and is designed to help them build a brighter future.

The aim is to move them away from pathways that could lead to anti-social behaviour or violence and give them positive adult role models.

Over the coming months, the Commissioner is supporting a number of projects that use sport to make a difference to young people, helping to get them off their phones and develop their skills and confidence.

It was a real pleasure hosting the brilliant Surrey Search & Rescue team at our HQ for their annual meeting last week.

Their volunteers play a vital role assisting the emergency services in searching for vulnerable adults & children when they go missing in Surrey.

Deputy PCC Ellie Vesey-Thompson was on hand at the event to give out long service awards to members & hear about their recent achievements.

Last year the team, which is made up of over 80 volunteers and dogs, attended 50 call outs & spent over 6,000 hours on deployments in our county.

Amazing work guys - we salute you all! 🫡 👏
