Take a weekend break and help the Police Treatment Centres

Bookings for 2022 weekend B & B breaks at the Police Treatment Centres (PTCs) are now open.

The two centres, St Andrews at Harrogate, North Yorkshire, and Castlebrae at Auchterarder, Perthshire, are set in stunning countryside and give members a great chance to unwind for a couple of days while raising money for the PTC.

West Midlands Police Federation chair John Nott said: “These B & B breaks offer our members the chance to take a breather after a hectic couple of years.

“Both centres are in beautiful parts of the country and are ideal for anyone who wants a relaxing weekend away from the stresses and strains of work.

“Having stayed at the Harrogate centre recently, I can highly recommend it. Set in a stunning location, it is a great place to relax and unwind while also offering great value for money.

“As an added bonus, the profits go straight back to the PTCs to upgrade the facilities and services at the two centres.”

The B & B breaks raised £106,206 for the PTC in 2019.

Visitors to either centre can spend the weekend exploring the surrounding areas in some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK and there are also plenty of activities and special events taking place throughout the year.

Harrogate is home to renowned flower shows in April and September and also hosts international music and literary festivals in July and October.

It is also close to a number of places of interest such as the RHS garden at Harlow Carr and the historic sites of Ripley Castle and Castle Howard.

Some of the best golf courses in Scotland are just a short drive from the Auchterarder base along with a wide range of other outdoor pursuits. Some weekends are still available for bookings in 2021.

Bookings are open to all members of the police family.
