海角直播 hosts crime solving day for Police Cadets

Around 100 Police Cadets enjoyed a full day at 海角直播 where they took part in a variety of workshops in the University鈥檚 realistic Crime Scene House and Law Court.

The sessions included fingerprinting, footwear analysis, custody office procedure and interview techniques and culminated with a group court session where Cadets witnessed a live trial and had the chance to take part as members of the jury. Cadets from Cleveland, Durham and Northumbria Forces took part in the day which was opened by Chief Constable of Cleveland Police Jacqui Cheer and Cleveland鈥檚 Police and Crime Commissioner Barry Coppinger.

Chief Constable Jacqui Cheer said: 'The day was designed to take into account the knowledge Police Cadets already possess and focused on enabling them to learn and practice a range of Policing skills and techniques. We hope the session will promote and encourage their interest in policing and I would like to thank the University for hosting this event.'

The Police Cadet Programme is open to young people ranging in age from 13 to 17 years of age.

Cleveland鈥檚 Police and Crime Commissioner, Barry Coppinger added: 'This was a great platform to give these young people an insight into the practical skills required by a police officer and a chance for them to develop their self-confidence.'

Dr Mark Simpson, Dean of the School of Social Sciences, Business & Law, said: 'We were delighted to welcome the cadets on to our campus and give them a realistic experience of crime scene investigations and court room procedures. Hopefully it will motivate them to study here and go on to have great careers in the police force.'
