More volunteer police officers wanted for Manx force

by isleofman.com 10th April 2018

Efforts are underway to find more volunteer police officers for the Isle of Man.

A campaign is running to recruit Special Constables to the Isle of Man Constabulary - drop in sessions will be held throughout April.  

Chief Constable Gary Roberts explains: "The Special Constabulary plays a vital role in modern policing and I look forward to welcoming new recruits again this year.

"The work they undertake is not only important in helping to keep people safe – it is hugely rewarding from a personal perspective, allowing people to gain a range of experiences which are attractive to employers.

"Being a Special Constable also provides many with the knowledge and confidence to apply to join their full-time colleagues and is a useful way to find out if policing can become a career for them in the future."

Special Constables are expected to give up 100 hours of their time over a 12-month period.

Drop in sessions will take place at Costa at the Sea Terminal on April 12th, April 17th and April 26th between 6pm and 8pm; there will also be a session on May 5th between 11am and 2pm.
