Nicky is here to talk about her life as an Edinburgh police officer. She’s actually waiting for a meeting with her seniors, but in the meantime she’ll fill us in on her daily schedule. She’s wanted to join the police since she was a little girl. Her Dad was in the force, you see. He kept the city safe, and now that’s what she’s doing.
