• Paid training, regular support, observation and monitoring; 
• Uniform and IT equipment;
• Membership of a Local Government Pension Scheme; 
• Discounts at a number of restaurants, shops and gym membership;
• 25 days annual leave (pro-rata) rising to 30 days, after 5 years’ service, plus bank holidays.
