Are you aged between 13 – 18 years old and want to take part in fun activities that make a difference? If so, a place on our Police Cadet Scheme might be the perfect opportunity for you.

It is completely free to join, with free uniform and no weekly subs to pay!

It might be that you would like to see if a career in the police service is for you, or perhaps you really want to make a difference in the community where you live. You can be a shining example of the positive contribution young people can make to keep Lancashire safe.

The scheme allows you to develop your skillset and strengths through a structured programme to enhance relationships between local communities and the police.

We welcome those from any background, social group, gender, ethnicity, ability/disability, interested in the police and or simply looking to get involved with their local community. Being a teenager can sometimes be challenging, and some can feel a disconnection with their peers and community, so joining the Police Cadets could change that for you. We also like to encourage positive paths in life, and so, if you’ve previously been in trouble with the police don’t worry, you’re still welcome to join.

We are not looking to recruit future police officers but want to give all young people a chance to be heard, support their community and develop skills to become fantastic citizens in a fun, friendly and exciting way.
