Volunteers are an essential part of the British Transport Police family, offering invaluable support across many of our teams and departments, from our Community Panels to the Special Constabulary, attending to various roles and requirements.
Whether it's one day a week or on a more casual basis, all our volunteer programmes are incredibly flexible and welcomes contributions of all kinds. We deeply appreciate every individual who donates their time to help us provide the highest level of service to our community.
As a volunteer, in any capacity, you will receive training, guidance, and advice to carry out your role effectively. By working alongside our officers, you will bring fresh ideas, raise local concerns, suggest solutions, and build connections with your community.
Volunteering with BTP as a specialist police force is more than a role, it is taking part in history that goes back to 200 years. It’s an opportunity to give back to your community, make new connections, and develop skills.
We are always recruiting volunteers to join our BTP family and continually create new and exciting volunteer opportunities.
