Suffolk officers "stretched to breaking point"
Figures show it's among worst-resourced forces in England and Wales.
Suffolk has just two police officers for every 1,000 people - leaving the county among the worst-resourced forces in England and Wales.
New figures reveal Suffolk Police has only 1,403 full-time officers serving a population of 776,400.
By comparison, neighbouring Norfolk has 205 officers per 100,000 people.
The data, released by the Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) following analysis of Home Office figures, has sparked urgent calls for action.
Darren Harris, chair of Suffolk Police Federation, said: “Our members do an incredible job, but the reality is that Suffolk is being short-changed.
Darren is now urgently calling on Chief Constable Rachel Kearton, Police and Crime Commissioner Tim Passmore, and Suffolk’s MPs to demand fairer funding from the Government.
