Back ground:
This site was originally designed, written and maintained by Peter Wheaton who has now sadly passed on and whilst the design and look of the site has changed it has been his hard work in building the structure and content of the site that made it possible to continue in his absense.
The content of this site will consist of information specifically of interest to residents of Copthorne, Crawley Down and Turners Hill. Information on neighbouring areas on the beat of our Neighbourhood Policing Teams (NPT) will be included, when available and relevant.
