The news that our local police officer Neil Gibson is leaving Wivenhoe for the Essex Police Traffic Division is sad news – it will be our loss and the traffic division’s gain. Neil leaves today.
This officer has shown considerable enthusiasm in working in partnership with Wivenhoe Town Council and Wivenhoe Community Safety Neighbourhood Watch group.
Always willing to assist whenever possible, I have worked with him on days when he should have been off-duty, such was his dedication to police duties.
Together we have worked in a close partnership, meeting each week when ever he was on duty in Wivenhoe. He cares for the community which he has served so well.
After working with Neil, he will be missed and a hard act to follow.
