Police are on the lookout for extra special residents to help them tackle crime and anti-social behaviour in their community.
The Oldham West Neighbourhood Policing Team is holding an event at the Honeywell Centre, Ashton Road on Thursday 25 February, between 7pm and 9pm in a bid to recruit new special constables.
Inspector Alan Humphries of the Oldham West Neighbourhood Policing Team said: "Special constables are a vital extra resource in helping us reassure communities and keeping our streets safe. By becoming a special constable or a police volunteer, residents can play a key part in the fight against crime and anti-social behaviour and work with us to make their neighbourhood a safer place to live and work.
“I encourage anyone who has an interest in police work, voluntary work, or just wants to give something back to their neighbourhood to come along to this event and find out more.”
Special constables are volunteers who give up their free time to work alongside full-time police officers to detect and investigate crime, patrol hotspot areas and build relationships with the local community. They normally work a minimum of four hours per week.
If you have a neighbourhood policing issue please contact the Oldham West Neighbourhood Policing Team on 0161 856 8927 or email oldhamwest.npt@gmp.police.uk.
To report crime call police on 0161 872 5050 or for more information visit www.gmp.police.uk.
You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Crimestoppers is an independent charity who will not want your name, just your information. Your call will not be traced or recorded and you do not have to go to court or give a statement.
