Killamarsh & Eckington Police SNT
Just for info…we (PCSO Broadhead) have just set up a Facebook page run by ourselves for the Killamarsh and Eckington area – the page is simply called 'Killamarsh and Eckington Police SNT'
As it is run by local officers it won't be run 24/7 and posts won't be daily but hopefully we can reach to the local community using this page. We need to gain some followers to get the ball rolling
so if you could make as many people know as possible that would be great. More »
