On Day 5 of PolicingTV’s Volunteer Week, the series highlights one of policing’s most undervalued strengths: volunteer officers. In the feature “Why Volunteer Officers Are Policing’s Secret Asset,” experts and practitioners explain how special constables, reserve deputies, auxiliary officers and community volunteers amplify police capacity, offering crucial support in emergency response, public engagement, intelligence gathering, and proactive visibility.
Though often unseen and unpaid, these officers bring diverse skills, local knowledge and unwavering commitment that help law enforcement meet the complex demands of modern public safety.
