New Year with Elmbridge Beat

Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner Lisa Townsend saw in the New Year with Elmbridge Beat on their New Years Eve shift. 

Lisa said, 

"It is always great to see first-hand the invaluable work of Surrey Police to ensure everyone is safe on Surrey’s roads over the festive period.

Thinking about drinking or drug driving? While we can’t be everywhere we could be anywhere and officers will stop anyone they see committing a driving offence.

Wishing you all a Happy and Prosperous 2023!"
