Brush up on your detective skills at Essex Police Museum

Aspiring young police detectives can brush up on their skills at Essex Police Museum on August 18.
 
The ‘become a police detective’ event will give children a chance to write in invisible ink, learn about fingerprints and make a detective door hanger.

Museum curator Becky Wash said: “Detectives have a fascinating role in policing. They search for clues using many methods, including fingerprints and the use of DNA.

“We want to give children an insight into being a detective while making it fun.”

This event is hands-on learning for children aged five and over.

Visitors are welcome at  Essex Police Museum, Police HQ, Sandford Road, Chelmsford, CM2 6DN between 11am and 4pm.
