The Duchess of Cornwall received new Bobby Vans on behalf of the Wiltshire Bobby Van Trust last month.

The two state-of-the-art vans have been added to the Southern England charity’s growing fleet on its 10th anniversary. The Trust’s chairman, Robert Hiscox, said, “We started with one bread van and a box of tools but have now visited nearly 10,000 homes in the last 10 years.”

The vans are equipped with all tools and supplies necessary to repair doors, windows and security devices of homes that have been burglarized, and are captained by locksmiths and carpenters also trained as Crime Reduction Officers in order to counsel victims on home security and safe practices.
