Ever Wondered What It’s Like to Ride Along with Humberside Police? Now You Can.
By Explore Hull
Have you ever watched a police drama and thought, “I wonder what it’s really like?” Well, now’s your chance to find out — no acting, no scripts, just the real deal.
Humberside Police is giving local residents a unique opportunity to join them on the frontline with their Ride Along Scheme. It lets you accompany officers on patrol and experience first-hand the kinds of incidents they respond to day and night.
Whether it’s dealing with antisocial behaviour, making arrests, or carrying out community visits, you’ll get to see what modern policing actually looks like in Hull and East Yorkshire.
It’s not just a chance to satisfy your curiosity — the scheme helps build transparency and strengthen trust between the police and local people. You’ll be right there in the passenger seat (literally), getting a proper look at the challenges officers face daily.
How to Get Involved
The scheme is open to anyone over 18, and you’ll need to fill in a quick application and background check. From there, you’ll be matched with a patrol and off you go.
It’s ideal if you’re considering a career in policing, or if you just want to better understand how the force works in our communities.
