Media Reviews
I feel privileged to have been included in this guide book. I initially started looking at career with the police service when I was about 19 and at the time a book of this nature would certainly have assisted me with my research. The book is clear and concise and would give any prospective candidate a distinct advantage. --PC Nick Storey, British Transport Police. The book is very informative. --Superintendent Mike Cloherty, Merseyside Police. The book is really informative to whoever wishes a career in the police. What an insight into the life's of everyday officers. --Sarah Hussain, Student Officer.
