Force drive to recruit new police officers

The force has pledged to maintain officer levels at 1,220, a commitment which means more trainee officers are now needed.

Northamptonshire Police is one of only a few forces across the country currently recruiting new police officers.

Police and Crime Commissioner, Adam Simmonds, said: “I’m passionate about making our police force the brightest and best in the country.

“By joining Northamptonshire Police, people will help us to deliver my ambition to make our county the safest place in the country while also being in the unique position to make a real difference to the lives of people across our county.”
