We went on a visit to Drylaw Police Station, 2 officers called Holly and Pete met us and took us into the briefing room. They told us a bit about how the station works and we got the chance to ask them some questions. From here, we were taken to the cells, they told us about how they were used and we got a chance to try them out. They have 4 cells, one of which is used for storing evidence. We then got to go outside and sit in a police van and car. We got the chance to go in the back of the van and also try the driver’s seat – we also got to put the siren on which was great fun! We then went back into the briefing room where we could try out handcuffs and got to see a pepper spray and baton. It was a very interesting visit but hopefully that will be the only time we see the inside of a police station!
