Terry Woods<\/p><\/div>\n

Lancashire Constabulary has today appointed a new Assistant Chief Constable.<\/p>\n

Terry Woods, currently Chief Superintendent at Lancashire Constabulary will take over from ACC Mark Bates when he retires this summer.<\/p>\n

The appointment of ACC Woods comes just a month after Sunita Gamblin, formally a Chief Superintendent at Derbyshire, was recruited to replace Deputy Chief Constable Andy Rhodes when he takes up the position of Chief Constable in June, creating a new Chief Officer group at Lancashire.<\/p>\n

Terry Woods has worked at Lancashire Constabulary for 21 years, starting as a Constable at Burnley and subsequently working across Lancashire at Blackburn, Accrington, Preston and Blackpool.<\/p>\n

He said:\u00a0 \u201cIt is an absolute honour to have been selected as an ACC in Lancashire, a county I have been proud to serve for 21 years. I would like to thank all those who have supported me including staff, partner organisations and particularly my family. I look forward to playing my part in the future of Policing and serving the communities of Lancashire going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

DCC Andy Rhodes said: \u201cI am delighted that Terry will be joining our new team and his knowledge of Lancashire\u2019s communities and operational challenges will be a real asset for us. Terry has a hard earned reputation and will bring fresh insights to our plans for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw added: “This is an exciting time in Lancashire Constabulary with a new leadership team building on a solid and high performing legacy of their predecessors. A new team brings new momentum and innovation helping us to meet new challenges and I am looking forward to working with the new Assistant Chief Constable Terry Woods and the rest of the senior management team on delivering my police and crime plan for Lancashire.”<\/p>\n

Arrangements will now be made regarding ACC Terry Woods start date and his immediate responsibilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
