GREATER Manchester Police has launched a new radio service that will deliver monthly podcasts to listeners.
Hosted by PC Mike McGuinness, each episode will explore a different theme or trend around crime prevention and safeguarding in Greater Manchester, offering support, advice and tips for listeners.
The first GMP Radio podcast, which is available for download, this month features a special report on mental health, in which McGuinness visits the Alzheimer’s Show and hears from experts in the nursing and charity sector, as well as speaking with emergency services officers.
The report also includes an account of the impact dementia has on families from respected news and radio presenter John Suchet.
Deputy Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said: “GMP Radio is a new, comprehensive exploration of issues important to Greater Manchester and we are delighted to launch this podcast service with a look at dementia and its impact on communities.
New episodes of GMP Radio are available to download from: www.gmp.police.uk
