Answer

Following a search of our paper and electronic records, I have established that the information you requested is not held by the Office of the Northamptonshire Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner (OPFCC) as no events were organised by any member of the OPFCC between the dates of the 1st December 2020 to the 31st December 2020.

The PFCC did visit a number of police stations and fire stations in December to thank front line officers for their work during the pandemic. These visits were undertaken in line with the Government’s Covid restrictions.

Details of the PFCC’s diary can be found on our website at:
