Written question asked by Shaun Davies (Labour) on Thursday, 17 April 2025, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 23 April 2025. It was answered by Diana Johnson (Labour) on Tuesday, 29 April 2025 on behalf of the Home Office.


Police Community Support Officers

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, who the longest serving police community support officer is in each police force; and what steps her Department is taking to recognise long service of police community support officers.

Answer

The Home Office does not publish information on the length of service of PCSOs.

The Home Office will consider any proposal for national long service recognition for Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).

It is only right that we recognise the commitment shown by PCSOs across the country and whose roles are undeniably at the sharp end of policing, diffusing community tensions and providing visible policing presence in our communities.
