Check out our Life page to discover more about life as an employee at Wiltshire Police! The new Police and Crime Plan 2022 – 2025 sets out our four key priorities: 1. A police service that meets the needs of its communities. 2. Reduce violence and serious harm. 3. Tackle crimes that matter most to local communities. 4. Improve the experience of victims and deliver justice. The Police and Crime Plan is dynamic and flexible, reflecting the changes in patterns of crime and behaviour and allowing for priorities to be adapted to meet the demands of the community.

Criminals posing as police officers is common with courier fraud. They will try to convince you that you are helping an investigation by handing over money or purchasing gold. If this happens, hang up and dial 999. You can also make a fraud report at actionfraud.police.uk
⚠️ Courier fraud is more common than you might think. 👮 Criminals pretend to be a victim's bank or the police and ask them to transfer or withdraw money to aid an investigation. 🚨 Don't be fooled, read more below... 👇
This week we will be posting advice on what to do if you are targeted by criminals carrying out courier fraud. Courier fraud is when criminals contact victims by phone pretending to be a police officer or bank official. To support this claim, the caller might be able to confirm some easily obtainable details about the victim such as their full name and address. Victims are then asked to co-operate in an investigation by attending their bank to withdraw money or foreign currency from an exchange, or purchase an expensive item to hand over to a courier. At the time of handover, unsuspecting victims are promised that the money they’ve handed over or spent will be reimbursed but in reality, there is no further contact and the money is never seen again. The most important thing you can do, if you’ve been a victim of courier fraud, is to report it to Action Fraud. This is crucial to help police forces build a picture of this type of crime. You can make a report online at www.actionfraud.police.uk or by calling 0300 123 2040. Call 999 if someone is on their way to your house to collect money and/or valuable items.
National Stalking Awareness Week #NSAW24 #StandAgainstStalking
Great job team - thank you for hosting us at the event Elaine. All our latest opportunities can be found here https://lnkd.in/gpUngiwa 🚔
Last week we had the PCSO's and a plain clothed Police Officer visit our Eaves Learning Centre as part of our #WGFutures. It was a very informative session talking about the career opportunities available within the Police, the routes to be able to join and the qualifications needed. They shared experiences of working together as a team and were also very real about some of the stigma attached to working in the Police. The students were totally captivated, we started with 1 student saying they would consider working in the Police and ended with 3 saying they would. Aspirations were raised and just as importantly relationships were built and stereo types broken for our young people. Thank you to Wiltshire Police.

A warm welcome to our newest intake who started training in March - the 17 police constables are pictured at their attestation ceremony. The cohort of aspiring officers are from varied backgrounds such as ex-military, healthcare staff and retail assistants. The ceremony involves taking The Oath by which police constables swear to “serve the King in the office of constable, with fairness, integrity, diligence and impartiality, upholding fundamental human rights and according equal respect to all people”. We wish the 17 recruits the very best in their initial training and look forward to celebrating their pass out ceremony in the months to come.
