Essex Police Special Constabulary is honoured with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service
TODAY, [Wednesday 2 June] Essex’s amazing volunteer police officers have been honoured with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK.
And the award includes a ‘special designation’ for providing impactful support during the early months of the pandemic.
During the last year’s lockdown, between March and June, the Special Constabulary volunteered over 54,000 operational hours, providing visible policing and helping communities during unprecedented times. And in the year to 31 May 2021, they volunteered a total of 207,552 hours to policing Essex, an average of 17,300 hours a month.
