Wiltshire Police

Just to post a topic here, the Emergency Services Show will be returning to Hullavington (north of Jn 17, M4) this Sunday with a number of specials providing a policing presence. http://www.emergencyservicesshow.com/

Does anybody have any contact details for Special Sgts at Trowbridge please. We were attested on Saturday but have not heard from anyone since. Obviously PM me the details. Thanks in advance.

Rosco, Are you able to make a private area of the forum for Wiltshire chat? Much like they have in the Met forum area.

Just saw from the Chief's twitter account that the cadets have started today, as a pilot he hopes to roll out elsewhere.

Not new news, but I think worth posting and pinning to make visitors to this Force Specific area aware that Wiltshire Police does now have a cadet scheme running (albeit a pilot currently, as of beginning of 2014). http://www.wiltshire-pcc.gov.uk/News-and-Events/News-Archive/2014/Wiltshire-Police-launches-pilot-volunteer-Police-Cadets-scheme.aspx

Hello all, I am tagging onto 4 training sessions with the Jan intake. I am down to attend training at Melksham or Whitehorse. Anyone know where Whitehorse is (or is this a typo)?

Anyone else having problems getting onto the website for booking duties?

WE ARE LOOKING FOR POLICE SPECIALS Following the recent success of working directly with retired Police Officers I confirm we are now looking for Police Specials to become our Charity Ambassadors. Air ambulances do an amazing job but when the have to land away from a hospital without a helipad, valuable time erodes and secondary transfers via a road ambulance into A&E Departments can prove fatal. Our life-saving HELP Appeal is providing funding for brand new Helicopter Emergency Landing Pads at Major Trauma Centres and key A&E Hospitals across the country. The HELP Appeal is the only charity providing funding towards these life-saving helipads and your support…

So I've managed to get through to the assessment centre stage for the regulars recruitment! Happy days, anyone have any advice or help! The day looks intense!

Good luck to those that apply. http://www.wiltshire.police.uk/index.php/jobs/pcso

Hi All, Just wanted to quickly posted that our intake have nearly finished our training and are attesting on 25th January.. just OST 4&5 and consolidation to go. Having been a SPC in a different force I can honestly say that the training provided by Wiltshire is outstanding. I understand that a new intake have just started their training. If any of the new intake are on this forum I wanted to wish them good luck for the next few months. Enjoy your time at HQ, engage with all of the material and ask lots of questions (I am renowned for that!). Looking forward to being on division and meeting the rest of the team!

Anyone got through the online assessments? Been given the application form. But also for Dorset Currently a special in Bristol (A&S) so trying to decide now which one to apply for... any tips? Trying to organise some sort of observer shift/visit to both forces. Anyone reccomend any stations in Wiltshire to visit? (or know of where most probationers are likely to end up) Cheers and good luck to all applying.

Hello all, I am transferring in from A&S after 4 years as a Special there. I have been asked to attend this event on the 7th (tomorrow) and wondered if there was a dress code? I would go smart casual normally, but wondered if any knew otherwise?

I know of 4 people so far that this applies to, if you also are waiting to have your induction with SDU but not heard when you can attend a session then PM you collar number and I'll pass it on to the Sgt who looks after the SDU.
