Officers from the Royal Military Police helped keep the streets of Bath safe at the end of last month.

Over the weekend of Friday 29th and Saturday 30th August, Avon & Somerset Police officers were joined by officers from the Army corps to boost their presence in the night-time economy.

The Bath City Centre team said: “We hope this is the start of a productive, proactive relationship between our two forces.

“Officers from the Neighbourhood Team, Response Team and Military Police spent the evening working alongside City Marshals from Bath BID [Business Improvement District], Bath City Pastors and the Suicide Prevention UK Welfare Team.”

On that Friday evening, there were also further ‘Project Vigilant’ deployments.

The project involves specially trained officers and proactively targets predatory behaviours in the night-time economy, especially those aimed towards women and girls.
