Their time working in both urban and rural areas has provided a broad perspective on the diverse challenges and opportunities within community policing.

Promoted to Inspector in 2021, Inspector Ho Tsang took on the role of County Duty Inspector, managing Response Policing teams across a wide area from Royal Wootton Bassett to Salisbury. In 2023, they became the Custody Inspector for the force, with responsibility for custody operations across Wiltshire, before joining the Neighbourhood Policing Team in April 2025.
