POLICE officers serving the Maldon district will be hosting an interactive online session for residents to discuss their issues in the community.

The live Q and A will be held next Thursday (May 13) at 4pm on Facebook.

Officers from the Maldon Community Policing Team will be teaming up with the Tri-Service Rural Community Officer to help answer questions.

A spokesman said: “You can simply ask your question in the comment box and a member of the team will answer your question in real time.

“If we cannot answer it immediately, we will come back to you.

“Please get involved and ask away about any local policing, fire and ambulance issues or concerns you have.”

The social media post will activate on the day and residents are urged not to ask questions before then as they will not be monitored.
