The Kensington Police Service held a recognition event on March 24, 2026, to celebrate Office Manager Brenda Perry for her 20 years of dedicated work for the community in Kensington, Prince Edward Island.

Ms. Perry has provided administrative support and continuity for the town’s local police force for two decades. Kensington is one of only three municipalities in the province that maintains its own police department, serving a population of more than 1,800 residents.

The department operates from an office at 55 Victoria Street East and is currently led by Chief Landon Yuill, who was sworn in on January 6, 2025. The force includes about three full-time officers and focuses on local programs like “Coffee with a Cop,” bike rodeos, and annual fishing derbies.

Mayor Jeff Spencer has described the local police service as a cornerstone of the town that residents know and trust. The police service accounts for nearly 20 per cent of the annual town budget to ensure local officers remain available to the public.

The recognition of long-term staff highlights the department’s effort to maintain strong ties with the community. Residents can reach the police office for non-emergency questions by calling 902-836-4499.
