Title: A Visible Difference: An Evaluation of the Second Phase of Police Community Support Officers in West Yorkshire
Summary: This evaluation considers Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) in four local authority areas (6 police divisions) in West Yorkshire. All four local authorities are either currently match-funding or are in the process of agreeing match-funding for PCSOs. Data has been collected for this evaluation through a range of quantitative, qualitative and secondary data. The evaluation found that PCSOs are instrumental in tackling anti-social behaviour, low level crime and disorder. They are engaged in a diversity of roles and tasks which have become an integral part of neighbourhood policing teams.
