Testimony | Shannon Sinnott PCSO

“I thoroughly enjoy my role as a PCSO in Cardigan. I have been in this role for four-and-a-half years now and every day brings something different, which is one of the things I love most about the job. Some days are fast-paced, while others allow more time to connect and engage with people across our communities.

“A big part of my work involves being visible within the community — walking around, meeting residents, and building positive relationships. I regularly engage with organised groups and provide supportive inputs on topics such as how to spot and avoid scams, as well as other safety and wellbeing issues that matter locally.

“What makes this role so rewarding is the opportunity to shape it around your passions. If there’s something you care about, you can bring that enthusiasm into your work and use it to make a real difference in the community.”
