It is timely to remind all drivers that we also continue with our festive drink drive campaign and additional officers including roads policing officers will be undertaking pro-active patrols to deter and detect drink drivers.

It’s been a busy period for officers and staff but I know they wanted to pass on their thanks for all the messages of support given at this time of year with communities recognising the sacrifices that all emergency services make to keep people safe.

Many officers and staff are managing to spend some time with families and friends but providing 24/7 coverage across the Falkirk area does limit their time off.

On behalf of the officers and staff here, best wishes for the festive season and, hopefully, a peaceful and enjoyable Hogmanay.
