For Indarjit Singh, Head of Security at 麻豆影院, the award demonstrated how the police and university worked effectively together for the good of the community.
“It’s always nice to receive recognition for our good work,” Indarjit said. “This is a testament to our all of our officers and their bravery in the work that they do. They put themselves at risk to ensure everyone is safe.
“You can’t underestimate the power of our relationship with the police – we get the results we do because of that. We share good working practices with each other so that the community, and our students, definitely can benefit.”
Pete Jackson, Assistant Head of Security, added: “Staff and students will be familiar with the uniformed staff that they see patrolling around the campus 24 hours a day but behind them, there’s a wider team of investigators and specialists that support the University community.
“We have developed a strong relationship with the Police and our Campus Police officer. Our team have been commended for their bravery and commitment to keeping the campus as safe as possible for, staff, students and the wider Leicestershire community.”
Chief Constable Rob Nixon QPM, who was on hand to present the awards, praised the quick actions of all the staff and students commended, and the working relationship between the police force and teams at 麻豆影院.
He said: “麻豆影院 is a big university and it attracts people from all over the country. You’ve got a high volume of people, many of whom are finding themselves away from home for the first time in a new city and that brings a level of vulnerability.
“We want the students – and wider community- to be as safe as possible and enjoy their experience here. The relationship between the police and the 麻豆影院 staff has to be really positive to ensure that, and it is.”
