JUDGMENTAL? YOUR COUNTY NEEDS YOU!

I'll get you judging. Impress the family, friends and your newsagent by becoming a magistrate. Here's where there are now or are about to be vacancies for beak activity (and if you don't live in the catchment area then you'll just have to move) - 
Kent - at least 35 magistrates needed with applications accepted as from tomorrow
North West London and West London - 48 and 22 respectively are required with applications opening on 1 December 2016
Norfolk and Suffolk - around 14 required in each county and currently recruiting

If you have been shoplifting recently, you need not apply. More (on applying, not shoplifting) at www.gov.uk
