Recruitment to the South Yorkshire Volunteer Police Cadets is now open to all young people who live in South Yorkshire.  You need to be 15 years old by 31 August 2025 and no older than 17 years of age by 31 May 2026. 

Applications close on 30 April 2025 and the completed forms will be paper sifted in early May. All candidates invited to interview will be notified by email the week commencing 19 May 2025. 

Interviews will take place on Wednesday evenings during June. 

All successful candidates must attend a two-day mandatory induction programme.

Cadets meet every Wednesday evening 1830-2000 during term-time and there is an expectation that you will attend every week. There is a cadet group in each of the four South Yorkshire Districts. (Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield) 

The scheme aims to provide a safe space for young people to develop employability skills through activities to enhance team working, communication and build confidence. Cadets will also have visits from policing departments such as the Dog Training, Roads Policing and Crime Scene Investigation. 

As a cadet you will also be able to volunteer for other activities working with District officers and PCSOs in the evening or on a weekend for example Remembrance Parades, Rotherham and Penistone Shows, Test Purchasing and leaflet drops.
