Crowthorne police station needs volunteers to run the front office, which is open to members of the public to visit. This is an important role, which supports the local community and also provides an insight into the working of your local police.
Crowthorne & Sandhurst Volunteers are on a rota, which normally involves one four-hour duty per week, usually between 9am to 1pm or 1pm to 5pm. We currently need volunteers on a variety of days during the week.
The current volunteers provide a high quality of service to the local community in Crowthorne and the surrounding area on issues relating to crime and community safety, and improving public access to Thames Valley Police.
The role of a volunteer is to ensure Crowthorne police station remains open at advertised times, and deal effectively with enquiries from members of the public, whether by phone or in person at the front counter. Some level of form completion is needed and recording of messages or information for police officers is undertaken. Full training is given, initially shadowing a full-time station duty officer and then an experienced volunteer.
Volunteers are also welcome at the police point in Sandhurst Memorial Park. Here volunteers normally fill a two-hour period during the week, but otherwise the requirements and training are the same.
If you feel you can assist in this important role to support your community please contact Carla Gale on 01753 506 094 or email her at Carla.Gale@thamesvalley.pnn.police.uk or call in and speak to a volunteer at either Crowthorne or Sandhurst.
