Andrew Pratt has been selected as the Conservative Candidate for Lancashire for the May 2016 Police and Crime Commissioner elections.
Andrew Pratt, who spent 28 years with Lancashire Police working his way up to the rank of superintendent before retiring five years ago, is the first person to publicly put their name forward for the £85,000 a year role. Andrew Pratt is a retired policeman who works part time as a primary school teacher.
He said: “I am delighted to have been selected as the Conservative candidate for Lancashire’s PCC election next year."
“I am looking forward to the campaign. I want to use my experiences as a policeman and a voluntary worker to improve the force and help to keep hard-working people and their families safe and secure across Lancashire.”
He said he wants to put victims first and ensure police officers spend more time on the frontline.
