As I have said elsewhere in this blog, keeping Plymouth safe is a task that involves thousands of people. The police play a really important part in this, but there are many groups, bodies, organisations and individuals who play a full part in various ways. I was thinking about this today when I was checking through my calender. These are some of the bodies that I met last week, all committed to working to keep Plymouth safe and strong. I have put their website addresses below in case you want to check out what they do. Of course there are loads more working on their own and together, but this is those I met with. They are a powerful force for good.
