Help
Sean is keen to remind Branches and Regions
that support is still available to help with
some Cultural events within Section UK.
Y ou will recall the article in the last magazine where Steve
Bretherton and his father in law attended the British Police
Symphony Orchestra when a pair of tickets were offered as a
competition prize.
If you have an event that you want me to support then please let me
know what the event is and how I can best support it by e mailing me
