A lady last night at the Sandiacre fire asked me what i get out of working for @DerbysPolice for free. I don& #39;t do it for me, I do it for:

1. My amazing #community
2. I& #39;m in a position to help so in my head, I have an obligation to help. This is how I choose to give back

3. To #support a force that is dedicated to supporting #Derbyshire
4. To be part of a #family like no other, lead by fantastically #passionate people like @DCCRachelSwann & @DerbysPoliceCC & run by the #amazingly dedicated #Officers that have become extended family.

(2/3)

5 (probably most importantly). To be able to watch #trafficcops and say "Hey, I know that cop!"https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👮‍♂️" title="Man police officer" aria-label="Emoji: Man police officer">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👮‍♀️" title="Woman police officer" aria-label="Emoji: Woman police officer">

The only thing I take away from every shift, no matter how bad it was, is a sense of pride from knowing that me & my @DerbysSpecials family have made a real #difference
