Officers and staff from Cambridgeshire Police have completed a long-distance cycle in memory of officers who have died in the line of duty and raised more than £8,275.
The Ministry of Defence Police joined them for the cycle, heading from Cambridgeshire Police Headquarters to the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire on July 30.
A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire Constabulary said: "Congratulations to the officers and staff from both Cambridgeshire and the Ministry of Defence Police who completed the Police Unity Tour on Sunday!"
