People have the chance to explore the life of a Bay of Plenty police officer with an open day coming up.
Tauranga and Rotorua police stations will host an open day on Sunday March 11.
Bay of Plenty District Commander Superintendent Andy McGregor said the open days were an opportunity
for police to connect with their local communities as well as promoting police as a career path.
"There will be a number of activities on display during the day to provide members of the public and anyone wanting to join the police with a real insight into the job we do with displays from our Armed Offender Squad, our police dog teams and we'll have staff there from our specialist teams including road policing, youth and CIB," he said.
"We'll also have staff on hand at both events who can talk to and provide advice and information to anyone considering policing as a career."
