My favourite part of the role is making a genuine and positive impact on people lives

My advice to others who are considering applying would be to carry out your own research to understand what the process entails and help you decide if the role is right for you.

The reward of putting dangerous criminals in prison makes the hard work worthwhile; nothing in life could be more fulfilling.

I genuinely believe that as a Police Officer you can make such a positive impact on people’s lives.

I love supporting victims, working closely with partners and doing everything possible to bring offenders to justice.

I would say it’s a fantastic opportunity so grasp it with both hands and make a real difference, not just to your local force, but you community and your city.

Being a Special will test you, so you’ll need to be open to being challenged. But if you’re OK with that, and you’re looking for an exciting and rewarding volunteering opportunity, you won’t regret it.

Policing in Cumbria is as busy, varied and complex as anywhere else in the country.

If you are a police officer in Cumbria you will feel that you can genuinely make a huge difference to your community and there is no better reward.
