Charlie was inspired after seeing his mum make an appearance on TV
A young trainee officer has joined the ranks at Nottinghamshire police after being inspired by a familiar face. Charlie Bone joined the force's training scheme after he was inspired by his mother, Victoria, who started working at the force seven years ago.
"She’s told me to take note of everything, pay attention and be switched on. She’s also said to ask for help if I need it because it’s important to get things right.” Victoria is currently working as a constable within the force’s internet child exploitation team, having previously worked on response.
Charlie was among 15 new recruits who took part in a passing out parade at Nottinghamshire Police’s headquarters on Friday, December 13, having completed their initial training. Charlie, who is joining the response team at Mansfield, said he was looking forward to experiencing frontline policing for the first time.
She said: “I’ve always wanted to help people. For me, it’s not about driving fast cars or Tasering suspects – it’s more about supporting victims and helping them get justice. The training has been really good. We’ve been in training for 24 weeks and it’s flown by.
