HARROW police have unveiled their latest base as part of a programme to give residents a greater opportunity to report crime.

The information centre, which has been set up in the Civic Centre, in Station Road, Harrow, replaces the manned desks at Wealdstone police station and will open from 9am to 5pm every day.

The desk, opened last week, will be staffed by police community support officers (PCSOs) who have been trained to deal with all aspects of police-related enquiries from the public.

The new facility follows the opening of Harrow Central police station, in Peterborough Road, last week, which replaced the base in South Harrow.
