CLLR Jacquie Russell and Town Clerk Julie Holden went on patrol as observers on Saturday night to see the work of the Street Pastors, who marked their second birthday at the weekend.

The Pastors, who are drawn from East Grinstead’s church community, routinely patrol the town centre from the late evening until the early hours every weekend to make sure that everyone gets home safely after a night out.

Thanking them afterwards, Julie praised the “great work” they do for the town.
