Lucy McDonagh

A Police Community Support Officer is looking forward to becoming a fully-fledged police constable.

Lucy McDonagh, 25, from Chipping Norton, has been a PCSO in her home town for the past three years.

She said: "I want to have more responsibilities. I want to be able to deal with the more dramatic, life-saving side of policing.

"The role of a constable includes a bit of everything. I will be arresting people, putting files together, and generally will be able to do more than a PCSO does.

"I wanted to be out on the streets, talking to people face-to-face and being the main point of contact for members of the public who have concerns or fears."

For the past year and a half year, Ms McDonagh has been teaching five new PCSOs the responsibilities of the job.

Ms McDonagh will start training as a Pc on Monday.

Sgt Rosemary Dilsaver, of Chipping Norton police, said: "Lucy has been an excellent member of the team.

"I'm very sorry to lose her but I'm sure she will be as good in her new role."
