PFEW Professional Development lead, Paul Matthews, on leadership:

“It is, therefore, no surprise that in recent surveys we find over three quarters of respondents saying they have no confidence in their senior leaders and find them uninspiring.”

[Police Care UK @policecareuk]

This week we’re supporting #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek. This year’s theme is ‘anxiety’. Policing is very stressful, and anxiety is common. The policing brain is very threat-focused, and it can be normal for it to go into overdrive if left unchecked. #ToHelpMyAnxiety #MentalHealth

[Craig O'Leary @TVPFedChair]

[Craig O'Leary @TVPFedChair]

You are spot on! Armchair commissioner MPs are not helpful to Policing.

[Police Federation of England and Wales @PFEW_HQ]

Between 2000 and 2022, MPs had their salaries rise by £35,773 while police officers were the only group of workers to face steady real terms pay decline of almost 20%.

[Katy Barrow-Grint @ktbg1]

Excellent event @MKDonsFC this morning to mark the installation of the Knife Angel in Milton Keynes. Utterly important to be having conversations about knife crime & educating about the risks.

[Thames Valley PolFed @TVPFED]

Today we remember DC Robert Charles Keylock of Thames Valley Police who died while on duty on this day in 2003. #LestWeForget

[Police Federation of England and Wales @PFEW_HQ]

#autumnstatement2022 has again left policing without sufficient investment making it impossible to make necessary improvements or execute desired reforms.

Govt. must consider the constraints of police officers before forming policies affecting them.
