Northamptonshire's young police cadets have been praised for their commitment to helping the local community.
In recent months, the cadets have completed hundreds of hours of voluntary service in helping on police projects.
The cadets, who are all aged between 15 and 18, have helped to make sure major events such as the Shambala music festival went ahead safely.
Northamptonshire Police’s Chief Constable, Adrian Lee, said: “The cadets provide a great service to our community and are a credit to the force.
“It’s wonderful to see them both helping out our officers at events and working with the community to enhance the reputation of Northamptonshire Police.
“And as well as giving a lot to the community, I know the cadets themselves benefit greatly from the scheme.”
Introduced in 2011, The Police Cadets learn about law, first-aid, police procedures and crime prevention techniques.
More information about becoming a cadet is available at www.northants.police.uk or by emailing members of the Specials and volunteers department at sav@northants.pnn.police.uk.
