THIS IS MY
COMMUNITY.

THIS IS
MY BEAT.

RICHARD

GAMEKEEPER AND
SPECIAL CONSTABLE

“I wanted to be more active in the rural community. When it
comes to Special Constables it really is a case of the more you
put in, the more you get out. You can give as much time as you
like, and 16 hours is enough time to make a difference.”

So if you want to play a greater role in your community,
you don’t need to change jobs. You just need to be aged 18
or over, able to commit to the initial training required and
willing to give up at least 16 hours of your free time a month.

Become a Special like Richard, and you’ll work alongside
regular Police Officers doing everything regular Police Officers
do. Patrolling the streets. Helping the public. Attending
crime scenes. Arresting people. Above all, you’ll provide
a reassuring presence in your local area and help keep
Hertfordshire safe.
