Podcast: Tributes to Kent Police officer who died after being involved in a crash while responding to emergency call on A20 in Farningham, near Swanley

from KentOnline · host Kate Faulkner, KentOnline

There have been tributes to a “selfless” and “brave”  Kent Police officer who has died after being involved in a crash while responding to an emergency call. 27-year-old PC Bradley Corke died yesterday after being critically injured in the line of duty after a serious crash in Farningham last week.  Also in today’s podcast, latest figures show there have been no new meningitis cases linked to the outbreak in Kent. It means 20 cases have been confirmed, with nine still under investigation – it’s as business bosses are hoping this week’s enthronement of the new Archbishop of Canterbury will bring tourists back to the city.  Tom Burke is best known for playing a troubled private detective haunted by his past in hit crime series Strike. But the 44-year-old is now trying to solve a “complex issue” off screen: helping Ashford town centre overcome an “identity crisis”. We've been hearing from a Kent mental health nurse, who works with the team that offered her support during pregnancy. After suffered severe bipolar and psychotic episodes while expecting her fourth child Tynisa Nixon received help from the Kent and Medway Mental Heath NHS Trust perinatal support team.  And in football, you can hear from the Gillingham manager after his side threw away an advantage on Saturday. The Gills looked in charge at the break, but two minutes into the second half Bristol took the lead and went on to secure the 2 – 1 win.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
