Are you in Inverness today? Cops from our Prevention & Interventions Team will be in The Eastgate Centre today from 10am to 1pm. Along with our NHS colleagues we will be raising awareness of the #ChooseToStop campaign which focuses on tackling domestic abuse.
#KeepingPeopleSafe

The Police Scotland badge features underneath along with the Respect Phoneline logo. To the right there is a pictre of a young male / female couple sitting on a sofa. They appear happy.
Pleased to support #OperationRespect
#OperationRespect kicks off Thursday 28 November and runs through Tuesday 31 December. @NHSHighland mental health nurses again out in support of people in our communities who are in need of crisis support
Staff in Inverness took a moment to honour the fallen by parading and observing a two-minute silence today.
SFRS staff were joined by colleagues from the @Scotambservice who were attending a training event today.

With Halloween, Diwali and Bonfire Night all quickly approaching this is one of the most exciting times of the year. But it can also bring additional safety challenges. So, to help keep children safe this season we’ve got some free resources.

In 2023, 236 people accidentally drowned in the UK, with 50% not intending to enter the water.
Anyone can drown. Nobody should.
Fostering Compassion have kindly donated Smokey Paws Oxygen Therapy kits to stations in our area. We are very thankful to the children participating in the animal heroes workshop for choosing these kits as their “gifts of compassion” in Megan’s memory.
