Today Translations is proud to announce that it has been chosen as one of the sponsors for the City of London Police Awards and Charity Dinner Dance on June 28.

The firm’s CEO and advisory board member, Jurga Zilinskiene and David Clarke, will also have the honour of presenting a specially-sponsored Police Dragon award on the evening.

The awards, a miniature model of the dragons that stand around the perimeter of the Square Mile, are presented to officers and constables of different rank, recognising the excellent service that they have put into the force during the course of the year.

Each year, money raised during the evening will be donated to the City of London Police’s charity of choice. This year funds will go towards the force’s charity of children, City Kids, which helps lift children in the UK out of poverty, relieving them of sickness and distress.
