Hi everyone, Just a general "what to expect" question. What kind of weekly P.T. does the force do? And how often a week is it done? Many thanks

Hi So I've recently applied to join Kent police as a regular. Just awaiting results of the paper sift. Currently a independent special at Kent police. I've seen lots of posts / topics etc on what to expect for the assessment centre. My only concern is the roleplays & the maths test. My day job is working for the NHS in forensics mental health so I feel I will have good examples on what to use for the competency interview. Without revealing to much, with the role-plays, how do you solve the issue without knowing what you're actually allowed to do to help the person (if that makes sense)? is it a case of going in, introduce yourself, ask them who they are, ask questi…

Hello! I've just received news that I've gotten through to the final senior interview next week... I'm so excited and nervous! I'm just wondering if there is anybody else who has taken this interview and if they have any tips of what it is going to be like? I'm trying to prepare myself but i'm not entirely sure of the questions they're going to ask. Any help will be appreciated :-) thanks!

So just a quick one. I'm always told I worry about everything. I'm starting my PC training next month on October 24th but I'm starting to worry about where I'll be sent upon completion. I am currently a special constable based at a station which is 7 miles from home. This would be the first choice. Second choice I've got is a station 12 miles from home. They're the only locations I know as I'm not from the area. My third choice would probably be Canterbury which is 28 miles away. This feels a little bit to far. Does anyone have any experience in this and how do they normally work out where to position people? My first choice appears to have had a fair few new recruits …

Not going to lie, but I don't think you can fully prepare for the assessment day! However, I did give it my best on the day, but now looking back I know I could of done better. Now I have to wait a grueling 2 weeks to be told my result! However I am 100% sure I failed.

Hi all, I'm starting training on 15th August and I would like to continue to improve my fitness after I have joined. Rather than signing up for an expensive gym where I live I wondered if you are allowed to use the gym (if there is one) at the college? If so, is it restricted to certain times and do you have to pay for it? I've also seen that if you join the KRPA you have access to various gyms around the county, but I can't find a definitive list of them? Any ideas? Finally, I've heard about the infamous Tuesday morning fitness sessions at the college during training. Is this an early morning optional thing, or is this part of the training? I'll do it rega…
