Little Girl’s Kind Gesture Brightens A Tough Night For Police Officers

June 2, 2025

Today's good news story comes from Lancashire, England.

During a road closure on Blackpool Road in Poulton-le-Fylde Saturday evening, one unexpected moment reminded officers of the power of kindness.

As emergency services worked into the night to remove a fallen telegraph pole and safely reopen the road, a young girl named Ava approached the officers with a simple but heartwarming gift: a small bag of sweets and a handwritten note that read, “Thanks for helping.”

Touched by her gesture, the Thornton Cleveleys and Poulton Police shared the moment on social media the following day, writing:

“We just wanted to acknowledge our thanks to a fantastic little lady that approached officers at the scene to bring a little joy to the job. Your parents must be very proud of you, Ava, as we are of our community.”

The road was safely reopened thanks to the coordinated effort of the response teams—and to the patience of the public, which officers also gratefully acknowledged.

In a world where small gestures can have a big impact, Ava’s sweet moment of gratitude served as a beautiful reminder of community spirit and appreciation.
