Selhurst Park today hosted the Metropolitan Police and community leaders in a match to celebrate a year's partnership working together to tackle serious violence and knife crime amongst young people in Croydon.
The match saw the Met Police take on a community team battling to win the Matt Ratana Memorial Trophy, in honour of the late Sergeant Matt Ratana who lost his life working in Croydon custody.
In attendance watching the match and supporting the partnership were Assistant Commissioner Louisa Rolfe, Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime Sophie Linden and other attendees from the Met and Croydon partners.
