A GARDEN party was held at West Mercia Constabulary for retired police officers and staff.
About 400 retired officers and staff from across the West Midlands attended the party, held at the force’s headquarters in Hindlip Hill, near Worcester.
Community support officers also showcased new bicycles in use across the force.
Chief Constable Paul West, said: “It is important for us to remember the contribution that our former colleagues made towards the safety and security of our communities.
“This garden party was a great opportunity for retired police officers, staff and their widows and widowers from across the West Mercia force area to meet up with former colleagues, make new friends and enjoy a fun day out.”
