THREE staff members from West Mercia Probation Service have been honoured for 20 years' long service.

Probation chair Tricia Bradbury presented Maureen Godfrey, Tony Hammes and Neil Jenkins with their awards at the annual staff conference.

She said the awards reflected 'consistency and continuity' which was beneficial to a 'healthy probation service'.

Each received a certificate and was also able to choose a gift worth up to £200.
