“I would like to thank the Bobby Van Trust for all they do to protect some of the most vulnerable people across Wiltshire and Swindon and recognise their brilliant work. The feedback that we have from those supported by the Bobby Van Trust is incredible – and upon meeting them I could see how utterly committed they were to Keeping Wiltshire Safe. I look forward to working ever closer with them.”
