Jan 2015 - Feb 2020

Uniform Police Constable

Dorset, England, United Kingdom

I have experienced Policing Dorset in both urban and rural settings. I am multi-skilled in a large number of specialisms. I am trained as a mentor and tutor to coach new recruits and new detectives on how to perform their role. The role is immensely rewarding seeing a 'green' new recruit learn how to interpret the law and apply the law correctly in hugely varying circumstances. You have to coach new recruits to be able to be bold, strong and resilient in the face of violence, but also soft, caring and approachable. This often must be at the same time.I am trained as a public order intervention officer, advanced Police medic, counter‑terror search trained and Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear trained allowing me to operate and deal with a vast array of serious incidents.In 2012 I was heavily involved in Policing the Olympic Games on Marine Section ensuring the Sailing, its competitors and the public were safe.

It frequently involves providing hot briefings and updates around live investigations and incidents. I have experience in supervising crimes ranging from a theft of a Mars bar up to murders, and everything in between. I have significant experience interacting with the public and media fielding and managing complaints or overseeing serious crime scenes.Within Dorset Police I found that those with disabilities such as dyslexia were suffering from discrimination. A number of years ago I created a support network for officers and staff with dyslexia providing them with a voice and advice. This has turned into a vital and supportive system allowing staff to fulfil their potential. This has led to a double‑pronged achievement both in individuals but also in productivity and effectiveness. This has led to a better work environment.
