Police Scotland’s Edinburgh Division is holding an open day which will include demonstrations and displays from all kinds of specialist units such as the Marine Unit, Roads Policing and the Dog Unit.
The event is being held thanks to support from Lothian Buses who will be there on the day and it is open to everyone.
The Open Day will take place on Saturday 23rd July between 11am and 2pm at Fettes Police Station, 5 Fettes Avenue in Edinburgh.
Numerous other partner agencies are also getting involved. Mountain rescue, the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, RNLI and 6VT youth café will all be amongst the fun, ready and willing to chat to visitors about what they do in our community.
Edinburgh Rugby and the British Army will also be there providing activities for any willing volunteers.
Also in attendance will be the Edinburgh Police Choir, which is made up of serving and retired officers, as well as members recruited through the local community.
The choir has performed at some prestigious events, including Edinburgh’s ‘Street of Light’ on the High Street during the festive period.
