MP: an extra 11,053 Police Officers recruited nationwide

Recently released figures show that 235 Police officers have been recruited in Essex since September 2019, bringing the force’s full strength up to 3,551 officers. These efforts form part of the Conservatives’ election pledge to recruit 20,000 new Police officers across the country, of which 11,053 has so far been recruited. Four in ten new recruits are women, and over 11% of new recruits identify as belonging to a Black, Asian, Mixed or other ethnic minority group.

John said,

“I welcome the excellent news that the Police recruitment campaign is progressing well, both nationally and in our area. The extra 235 officers for Essex Police will help keep our streets and communities safe, bear down on crime and provide important reassurance to the public.”

“As ever, I would like to thank the Police for their excellent work on behalf of the community. They have my full support.”
