POLICE will be on the beat across Conwy as part of a Christmas operation to help residents feel safer.

North Wales Police's Operation Santa will see officers on high visibility patrols in towns across the county.

A tweet on the NWP West Conwy Coastal page said: "PCSO Aldous and PCSO Bottomley are out and about throughout the day in the Llandulas, Llysfaen, Old Colwyn, Colwyn Bay, Colwyn Heights, Mochdre, Rhos-on-Sea and Penrhyn Bay areas of West Conwy on foot patrol as part of Op Santa.

"Op Santa is high visibility patrols in order to reassure, reduce and detect crime during the festive period.

Please give them a wave or come and say hi if you see them."
