Policing the Blitz & World War Two

The Policing the Blitz & World War Two project started with a VE Day 80 post (3rd post in the thread), which got us an exhibition. We'll put up the blog posts in what should be the correct order as when it all started we weren't on Bluesky. Here's Part 1: www.dcpolicingmuseum.co.uk/policing-the...

Thank you!

We can now offer free tours of our newly configured space at Okehampton Police Station.
Please see the photo for dates & use the email address: info@dcpolicingmuseum.co.uk to book.

We are taking a break from now & over the Christmas period, but we will answer/confirm places from early January.
