Merseyside Police has launched its annual Christmas campaign to protect local communities. 🎄
The public will see plenty of officers from neighbourhood policing teams out at busy spots across Merseyside. Officers will be sharing useful crime prevention advice and encouraging members of the public to become a ‘Christmas Crime Cracker’ by taking simple security measures to protect their possessions, such as security marking valuable items – a proven method to deter thieves and help recover stolen property.
We spoke to Chief Inspector Chris Bland to find out more.

Launching in 2003 as part of the Hope Street Hotel, the restaurant fast became one of the city’s favourites. And has since been awarded two AA Rosettes and holds an AA Notable Wine award.
Last week we visited for the first time in ages, and we were not disappointed. We chose from the A La Carte menu and both the service and the food were some of the best we’ve experienced in Liverpool. 👌
Amuse Bouche
▫️Pork Sausage roll, brown sauce
Starters
▫️White crab, curried velouté, pickled raisin, swede
▫️Beetroot tartare, horseradish, rice cracker, dill
Mains
▫️Corn-fed chicken, spiced bread sauce, fondant, bayleaf jus, chicken skin
▫️Lemon sole, pear and apple tatin, mulled cider
Dessert
▫️Espresso crème diplomate
▫️Mango, apple, rosemary, pine nut
