And its goodnight from us. Our last post on here as we hand over The Royal Parks to MPS colleagues. From summer crowds at the Palace to snow-fuelled winter evenings in Richmond Park, its been an absolute privilage for us to police these stunning parks 🚓

I have been policing Changing of the Guard since 2018, and today was my last one before pastures new. To think I almost made it to the line without a single child getting their head stuck in the railings! Big thanks to @LFBWestminster for rescuing the day!

2/2 🚫 Public order offence The passenger received a fine for cannabis. Inhaling nitrous oxide while driving isn’t just illegal — it’s incredibly dangerous. Don’t risk it. 💨🚗💥 #RoadSafety #ThinkBeforeYouDrive

Today's Changing The Guard was the final one carried out by the Royal Parks Police before we pass the baton to our Central West area colleagues. It was a bit emotional, but we’re proud to say we managed to reunite a lost child and ensure everyone had a fun and safe experience!

The magnificent King's Troop in Hyde Park today. The esteemed regiment conducted a 41 gun salute at midday to honour the King's Ascension to the throne, 3 years ago. No matter how many times we're seen it, it's always an incredible sight! Did you watch? 👀 #london #hydepark
