North Wales Young Ambassadors Programme
Young people across North Wales are being encouraged to ensure their voices are being heard on policing matters by applying to become members of North Wales Police’ Young Ambassadors Programme.
Following on from the success of the programme last year, North Wales Police are once again looking to recruit young people between the age of 16 and 24-years-old and who all live in the area, to inform and support police on matters involving young people and have their say on policing and crime where they live.
PC Mel Cartledge-Davis, North Wales Police’ Youth Engagement and Intervention Officer said: “We hope to recruit individuals who will provide a powerful voice for their peers across the region, and who will support, challenge and inform the work that we do that will help make better decisions to meet the needs of young people across North Wales”.
“There will be training opportunities around confidence building, teamwork and leadership and the ambassadors will also gain valuable skills and experience which will be relevant and could be used as part of the Welsh Baccalaureate, as part of their CV or assist with applications to further or higher education.
“They’ll be involved in scrutinising the use of police powers as well as complaints and incidents involving young people – providing feedback and making recommendations to North Wales Police.
PC Cartledge-Davis added: “We are keen to ensure that our Young Ambassador programme is made up of a diverse group of people who reflect the make-up of the local population, including those who may have direct experience of the police and justice system. Previous police contact or conviction is not a barrier to application”.
If you are interested in applying, or if you know of a young person who would like to get involved, please head over to our recruitment portal to complete an application.
