May is a winning month for Hampshire
May proved to be a lucky month for Hampshire Police, with not
one but TWO winners in the force.
Inspector Steve Jackson picked up a trophy and a bottle of
champagne, having earned special recognition for his work for
Police Mutual (PMAS) during 2010.
Steve, who is based at New Milton, said, 'I am really proud of
this award. In telling my colleagues in Hampshire about
Police Mutual, I am trying to raise awareness of the need for all
of us to take responsibility for our finances. To have this
recognised by Police Mutual feels great!'
Steve was presented with his award at the annual Police Mutual
Awards Dinner, part of Police Mutual's annual conference, which
this year was held in Cardiff.
And police staff member Michael Horne also has reason to
celebrate. His was the name picked from hundreds of entries
to Police Mutual's national monthly free prize draw for serving and
retired police officers and staff and their families. Michael
was delighted when he was presented with his prize - a Sony VAIO
laptop!
Michael, who is Prisoner Investigation Team Supervisor based at
Aldershot, said. 'I'm thrilled to have won. When I entered Police
Mutual's prize draw it only took a few minutes but you never expect
to win. The laptop will come in very handy, particularly as I was
just about to replace my old one."
Michael received his prize from Police Mutual's Regional
Development Officer for Hampshire, Simon Horgan.
