In addition to the extension of the TSSO role at Hayle, an additional two officers have been employed in Bude and Liskeard. TSSOs Adam Chapman (Bude) and Richard Deavall (Liskeard) have been seconded from CFRCSS and will work in partnership with DCP, SWASFT and Cornwall Council’s ASB Team to develop the role in their respective area. The officers will face varying challenges as these areas differ geographically.

In order for the services to adequately understand the outcomes from the pilot, Munro Research and Evaluation have been commissioned in order to carry out an impartial and accurate analysis of the role’s activities, advantages and the challenges that have been encountered.
