Date: 27th Jan 2026 @ 1:36pm
Today, PCSO Debbie visited us to talk about careers in the police. She gave an overview of the many different roles within the force, including dog handlers, the mounted division, the support unit, and traffic officers, explaining how each team plays a vital part in keeping communities safe. She also described what day‑to‑day life is like for a police officer, from responding to emergency calls to working with the public and supporting vulnerable people. In addition, she talked about the key skills needed for the job, such as good communication, teamwork, problem‑solving, staying calm under pressure, and being able to make quick but responsible decisions.
