Northumbria Police

What is the morale like in the specials at the moment? Good or poor - why is that? And - is this having an effect on the amount of hours you work as a SC.

Can anyone tell me what radio model northumbria use please?

Hey. Just confirmed that I start training in September - anyone going to be on this training course?

Just a quick question, has anyone on here been offered a place on the November training course for the specials?

Are Specials been used to police the airshow?. If not have Specials been offered a chance to ?.

So, has the Certificate in Knowledge of Policing (CKP) being implemented by Northumbria? Is it just for Specials and PCSO's, or is there an aim for external recruits with it to be able to apply in the future?

Got my interview date today for 10th August First go at the interview having been unsuccessful at paper sift on my first attempt. Nervous but excited!

This is mainly for the folks waiting for medicalise and vetting etc. Where do you want to be stationed and why?

I sent my application in on the 19th of may, it's status is 'under review'. Just wondered if this was normal any one else was is the same boat.

Does any one know of any specials that have been put through, IPMBA or PSC allowing them to cycle on duty ?

Hi, just received my force number and training dates. Wondering if anyone else starts training in July?

Sorry guys if this has been mentioned before, Do SC's still wear SC and crown on shoulder slides? Is there any visible difference to a member of the public between SC's and regs? Thank you

Hi guys. Just wondering if anyone on here is employed by a ambulance trust or the NHS. Mainly as Patient transport attendant. I've just been browsing and just realised that its an occupation that depends up on your trust. I shall be ringing the local trust to find some information tomorrow. But any from you guys is appreciated. Thank you

I noticed this in the news today - http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/10478788.Leading_Durham_police_s_volunteer_army/ Credit to Durham for putting this in place. I also read that their taking the lead in arranging a specials hour event on twitter on Friday. Will Norpol follow?

Just thought id start another topic off where we can talk about random stuff, ie Kev's dancing, Garys Caravanning Holidays, Funny you tube links, Goks fashion tips......
