Anthony Green, six, completes his visits to 50 police stations during July for charity
A big-hearted schoolboy who visited 50 police stations in all divisions across Scotland in a month to raise money for charity completed his adventure today - with a surprise promotion from the Chief Constable.
Anthony Green, six, visited his local station in Glenrothes, Fife, on the final leg of his journey.
Throughout July, Anthony has visited over 50 police stations and raised almost £2000 for the Police Benevolent Fund.
Officers from across Scotland welcomed Anthony and his parents, for his road trip which has seen him board a helicopter, a boat, been given tours of police stations and also meet a station cat.
As part of Anthony's trip, officers gave him an investigation to track down missing pieces from a jigsaw puzzle which were scattered across Scotland after falling from Santa's sleigh last Christmas.
He collected the missing pieces from each station on his travels and was welcomed back to Glenrothes to complete his puzzle by the officers he visits most days through his love of policing.
Anthony has worked his way through the ranks from starting out as a Special Constable back in 2022, to being promoted today by Chief Constable Jo Farrell to the role of Deputy Chief Constable.
In addition, Anthony's father Will is considering applying to become a Special Constable following his engagement with police officers and seeing first-hand the work they do.
Chief Constable Jo Farrell said: "It's an absolute honour to promote Anthony to my Deputy today following his excellent fundraising efforts.
"It was quite a commitment for Anthony and his family to undertake the task of visiting over 50 police stations during this month for such a great charity.
"I am delighted to present him with his completed jigsaw puzzle and to let him know that we are all hugely proud of his efforts.
"It is great that his dad is now considering a valuable role as a Special Constable and hopefully we will see Anthony back in uniform as a recruit in the future."
