The theme for the gala night was a nostalgic
look back at 170 years of force history.
Among the 230
guests were three former CoLP Commissioners - Owen Kelly,
Perry Nove, and James Hart - who were warmly welcomed to
the Awards Gala on Saturday night at the Grange City Hotel
in Tower Hill by the current Commissioner, Mike Bowron.
The proud history of the force was brought
vividly to life in a specially created review presented by a
professional actor and musician.
The focus then fell firmly
on the present day with the eagerly awaited announcement of
the eight winners of the coveted Dragon Awards for staff
achievement.
The dinner dance is expected to raise several
thousand pounds and awareness for the charity Cardiac Risk
in the Young.
