Independent Custody Visitors, (ICVs), are members of the public who volunteer to make unannounced visits to police custody suites to check on the rights, entitlements and wellbeing of detainees held in custody.
ICVs can visit custody suites at any time of the day or night, 7 days a week so you can volunteer even if you have full-time work or study commitments. ICVs report that they find the role extremely rewarding, that they learn a great deal about themselves, vulnerable people and the criminal justice system. A great way to give something back to your community. Will it cost me anything? Do I need to have qualifications? There are a few criteria for applicants, ICVs must be over 18 and live or work in Lincolnshire. Applicants must be able to attain police vetting but a criminal record is not necessarily a ban, please do get in touch to talk this through with us if you want to apply but think this might be a problem for you.
