THE new leader for Neighbourhood Policing in the East Riding of Yorkshire is one of Humberside Police’s youngest chief inspectors.
Chief Inspector James Glansfield, 36, will take on the role from Monday, 14 years after he joined the police in Hampshire, and seven years after he first transferred to Humberside Police with his first posting to Bridlington.
He said: “In the seven years I have worked for Humberside Police I have worked in a variety of roles and departments from being an IRT officer at Bridlington, Bransholme and Hedon, working on an 18-month immigration project with the UK Border Agency and being the custody sergeant at Hull’s busiest custody suite, you could say I have had a varied career so far.
“I am passionate about building on how we engage with the public so that you understand and contribute to how we are continuing to reduce crime through partnerships and community involvement. I look forward to a successful 2014 in the East Riding.”
