We’ve moved to @EPcadets - Please do not report crime here - call 999 (emergencies) or 101 (non-urgent enquiries).

Do you know of any events in #Colchester that would benefit from our #cadets being there to help? If so, please get in touch with us.

We’re moving!

As part of Essex Police plan to merge all existing Volunteer Police Cadet Twitter accounts into one place, we will be moving ship to @EPCadets !

And as such there will be no more tweets on this account.

Looking at kit officers wear, use and an insight into commands and tactics used!

Just another example of unique experiences our cadets get to enjoy

@ColchesterVPC @CInspHuddleston @EPColchester Very smart teams what a great night! Congratulations everyone!

[ColchesterVPC @ColchesterVPC]

Tonight, we celebrated #Intake5 passout as cadets, with @CInspHuddleston helping with the final inspection and awards. A big well done, it takes great courage to parade in front of friends and family! Ready to serve the community in @EPColchester @NationalVPC

Tonight, our Cadets were learning about First Accounts whilst the recruits perfected their boots. A pocket notebook is always a Police Officer's best bit of kit!

[ColchesterVPC @ColchesterVPC]

Whilst our recruits were polishing up their drill, our cadets learnt about police power of seizure and examined a crime scene to find potential evidence! Potential CSIs of the future? @NationalVPC

Great Evening speaking to Colchester Cadets. Another example of how Careers In Blue can help anyone in their preparation to join the policing family. We also offered advice for any job application too. Thank you to everyone attending 😊 https://t.co/FJjamIM3tE

@careersinblue @EssexPoliceUK @BJH251 No problem, thank you for coming down!

[ColchesterVPC @ColchesterVPC]

In the making!

Tonight, our cadets had a productive session with @careersinblue looking at steps into joining the @EssexPoliceUK family.

“I’m definitely going to take it what was said on board” some of the great feedback we had.

Hopefully coming to the streets near you soon.
