Wednesfield & Heath Town Police have been responding to community concerns about inconsiderate parking near the Edward The Elder School in Moat House Lane East in Ashmore Park, Wednesfield with the team patrolling at key times and giving some drivers advice over parking.

Some of the PCSOs had an unforgettable evening when they met the 3rd Wednesfield Squirrel, Beaver, and Cub Scouts earlier this week, with the youngsters hearing about the important work they do to keep the community safe. Some of them even got to try on some uniform and were given the chance to sit inside a police car.

PCSOs were also out in Bilston on their bikes and were able to cover lots of ground, taking in Stowlawn, the town centre and the St Chad's area on their patrols.
