North Yorkshire Police have launched a recruitment campaign for Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).
The force is looking for community-minded people who want to improve the quality of life in their neighbourhoods.
Posts are available in locations across the force area and we are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with a desire to work in the Scarborough, Filey and Whitby areas.
North Yorkshire Police has 179 PCSOs currently; this new recruitment campaign is designed to increase this to the full complement of 183 as well as maintain numbers as PCSOs progress their careers or leave the force; in Scarborough there will be a small increase in the number of PCSOs.
For more information about the role of a PCSO and the recruitment and training process, please go to the North Yorkshire Police website www.northyorkshire.police.uk/pcso or call (01609) 789642.
The closing date for applications is Monday 31 December 2012 at 4pm.
