Community Officers

 

Pamela HayPC 1103 Pamela Hay

 

I joined Fife Constabulary in 2006 after returning to my beloved Kingdom of Fife from Aberdeen where I had resided since 2000.  Immediately prior to joining the Police I served as a Prison Officer having worked at HMP Craiginches, Aberdeen and HMP & YOI Cornton Vale, near Stirling.  Fortunately my time in the Prison Service provided a relatively smooth transition to working as a Police Officer and I have settled into what I consider to be more satisfying and rewarding role.

 

Since joining the Police I have been stationed at St Andrews.  I have enjoyed my time serving the residents of St Andrews and now look forward to a new challenge working together with those who reside in the Howe of Fife.  I am very much committed to helping to tackle the issues causing the greatest concern.  As a very proud Fifer I will do my very best to serve those within my community area.
