PCSO Marrion Jeffery, of the South Normanton and Pinxton Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “This was another excellent display of partnership working from the police and Multi Agency Team which we were very happy to be a part of.

“Everyone enjoyed the day and got something out of the experience, and I would like to say a huge thank you to Pinxton Parish Council and Derbyshire County Council’s Adventurous Activities Team who made the trip possible.”
