There is a book that you have to buy, and its approx inch and half thick and you have to read it, and then go on the course, then you go for an exam that takes you onto Hendon.

Police recruiting has now changed, the course take approx two to three weeks of the training at Hendon, which takes approx 28/30 weeks - which is a brilliant college to go to.

To join the police service is a fantastic opportunity and worthwhile career, l enjoyed every minute of my 16 years as a special constable, I am now 61 years old, but if l had the chance again to walk the streets of London to prevent crime and help the community, then l would jumped at it.

This is why l will alwayws support the police service 100% in what they do and achieve, and if they ever (which l dont think they will) decided to go on strike - then l would support them still.

Is that coarse that he is paying for voluntary ??
