Hertfordshire police have recruited two Humanist advisers in the same week Pagan police officers were officially recognised by the Home Office.

The constabulary's chaplaincy team, which advises and supports police officers has recruited Pam Burn and Ray Owen, who both have extensive experience in counselling through volunteer work with the Samaritans.

Ms Burn said: “Police officers and staff play a vital role in our communities and we are very pleased to support them through our work.”

They join a support team made up of a variety of belief groups, including Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Pagan.
