About the event
David Hardcastle, a retired Yorkshire police constable with 20 years of service, will give a fascinating presentation about the history of policing.
He will bring his mobile policing museum, a private collection of police history exhibits spanning more than 220 years. It consists of historic and vintage police exhibits from the mid 1800's through two world wars to modern times. The collection includes uniforms, head gear, handcuffs and truncheons, police technology, working police radios, modern police riot wear, equipment from WW2 and much more.
Everyone is encouraged to try the items, see how they feel, work and even wear them, to add to the fun and help better understand how police officers work and how times have changed.
The Village Hall will be open from 6.30pm for food and drink. The talk starts at 7.30pm.
£3 per person, no need to book, pay on the door.
