Ms Jones said: ‘Volunteers and our partners make a huge difference to policing and play a significant part in making communities safer. This award will recognise the enormous contributions they make to society. There are thousands of local volunteers and staff supporting others and making a difference who deserve recognition for the positive impact they make. I am delighted to be able to host another ceremony in 2023.’
