NORTH Yorkshire Police will give £15,000 to The Police Treatment Centres charity over the next three years. The charity, which provides residential physiotherapy at its Harrogate base, is mostly funded by police officers through payroll deductions.

Julia Mulligan, police and crime commissioner for North Yorkshire, confirmed the £15,000 donation in addition to the individual donations.

She said: “They work in a very difficult environment and I am delighted to be able to support this worthy cause.”
