BISHOP'S STORTFORD: Community support officer nominated for award

4:32pm Thursday 22nd May 2008


A BISHOP'S Stortford police officer is in the running for a county award after being praised for her enthusiasm and commitment to her work.

Police Community Support Officer Clare Andrews is the East Herts winner of the Police Community Support Officer of the Year and will now go forward to the county awards on Thursday, June 5.

Clare narrowly missed out on a nomination last year but has maintained her enthusiasm and commitment to serving her neighbourhood making her a worthy nomination this year, the force said.

Bishop's Stortford inspector Andy Piper said: "Clare is one of the most motivated, committed and high performing PCSOs in East Herts, providing reassurance and high visibility support to her neighbourhood residents."

Clare took on a lead role in reducing neighbourhood tensions following the triple killings in Plaw Hatch Close, in Bishop's Stortford, last August, and has led intelligence gathering and put together evidence to secure an alcohol ban in one of her neighbourhoods for anti-social behaviour and underage drinking.
