All across Northern Ireland this week, people took time to remember those who lost their lives serving their country and community.
Remembrance Services give us the opportunity to formally remember all those who lost their lives serving their community, but their sacrifice should not be forgotten throughout the year.
Each and every day, throughout F District, officers continue to step up to the mark to provide a professional and protective policing service to all who live and work in this area. It is the legacy of all those who lost their lives in the line of duty that we strive to provide a professional, protective and personal policing service to all.
Looking to the future, we face challenges. We must look forward now to providing the best policing service we can. It is a tough time, I live in the real world. As an organisation we must live within our budget, operate within a global recession and yet continue, not only to provide a first class service, but also policing a unique security situation.
In the coming weeks I hope you will see some evidence of positive change. In the very near future you will be able to access information on local neighbourhood officers on our website http://www.psni.police.uk/ including names and telephone numbers. This is part of my commitment to ensuring that you know who your local officer is and how to contact them.
They are the people that work to keep our streets and our neighbourhoods safe from harm and I would rather they'd be out there with you. This is what I am working towards right across F District, bringing policing to the community rather than waiting for the community to come to us.
Our continued determination to deliver a policing service to all the people of Northern Ireland is one I hope our fallen colleagues would be proud of.
We will always remember them.
