In April, Northamptonshire Police Fire and Crime Commissioner Stephen Mold announced plans to recruit 200 new police officers which would give almost 100 extra officers on the streets of Northamptonshire within the next two years, taking the numbers above 1300 for the first time since 2010.

A major new recruitment campaign has now begun to increase applications and help bolster the ranks. The Force is using the strapline #FitTheBill and an inspirational video, available on the Force website and YouTube channel, is hoping to motivate and attract applications from a diverse background.
