TIME is running out to apply to become a police community support officer.

North Yorkshire Police’s PCSOs work out in the community, tackling local issues, dealing with anti-social behaviour, engaging with different groups of people and generally supporting police work.

They deal with lots of individuals, groups and organisations, and require excellent communication skills, good problem solving skills and the ability to appreciate different perspectives.

To apply for the opportunity to join the force as a PCSO go to https://northyorkshire.police.uk/jobs/pcso/ by 9am on Friday.
