PCC visit Wooler police in new home

Northumbria Police and Crime Commissioner Vera Baird visited the Cheviot Centre in Wooler this week, the new home for the village's police.

She said: “There was stress at Wooler about the closure of the police station, but we have a full complement of officers at the Cheviot Centre.
