The PCSP and the PSNI Banbridge Area had a joint stand at the event.

It provided a great opportunity to engage with and talk to people who have young children or who are involved in caring for them as well as local businesses that provide related services.

Children and young people were able to look round a car that has been customised for promotional use by the police whilst the PCSP distributed information packs including home safety advice.
