I AM writing to say a big thank you to our local Pcso, Helen Duffield.
Community police officers like Helen work exceedingly hard and often do not get the recognition they deserve.
Whenever there is a problem in East Oxford, Helen is always available to resolve the matter amicably.
She has helped residents in Magdalen Road with an ongoing problem of antisocial and drunken behaviour by a regular cohort of middle-aged men who like to loiter and drink in the area.
Sometimes these people shout very unkind comments at Pcsos as they do their duty. This is completely unacceptable as they work extremely hard, walking miles every day.
Helen Duffield always has a lovely smile and is a real credit to her profession in every way.
So on behalf of local residents I would like to say a big thank you to Helen.
SUSAN THOMAS Magdalen Road Oxford
