The police cyclists presented Morrisons with a certificate to say thank you, which was received by employees Emma and Claire, and the cafe staff.

Every year Morrisons support these officers who cycle to fundraise for Care of Police Survivors, a charity that supports the families of police officers and staff who have lost their lives on duty.

In the nine years since the start of the UK Police Unity Tour more than £1million has been raised for COPS.
