New PCSOs Passing Out

This morning, 8 March 2013, saw the latest Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) complete their training in preparation for beginning duty on the streets of Greater Manchester.

 

The occasion was marked by a passing-out parade at the Force’s Sedgley Park Centre.

 

The work of PCSOs complements and supports their regular police officer colleagues. They provide a highly visible and accessible uniformed presence in the heart of local communities, which is intended to improve the quality of life and offer reassurance to the general public.

 

Find your local Neighbourhood Policing Team.

 

Neighbourhood Policing is at the heart of Greater Manchester Police. We want Greater Manchester to be a better place to live, work and play.

 

It is about putting people at the heart of what we do, really caring and having a strong working relationship with our communities. It is about having the right people in the right place at the right time tackling everything from anti-social behaviour and burglary to terrorism and organised crime.

 

Greater Manchester Police is divided into geographical areas known as Divisions. Each of these divisions has a number of Neighbourhood Policing Units, each of which is managed by a Neighbourhood Inspector. These units have specific areas of responsibility and consist of smaller, localised, Neighbourhood Policing Teams which include your local police officers and Police Community Support Officers.

 

These Neighbourhood Policing Teams are focused on your needs. They have regular meetings where you can help set the priorities for your community. You can also find out who your local officers are and read about policing news from your area.
