People are being sought to operate the towns' CCTV cameras to help with crime reduction and information gathering.

They will work in conjunction with police officers, PCSOs, members of the county and groups such as ShopWatch and PubWatch.

Derbyshire police said volunteers would be expected to undergo security checks and take part in at least 20 hours of training but that there would not be a minimum hours of service requirement.
