Police Reform
Getting Involved
There are lots of ways you can become involved with your police authority, either by becoming a member yourself or by working with your authority.
If you would like to join your local police authority, you should contact the authority directly. Details of your local police authority can be found on the Association of Police Authorities (APA) website (new window). For more information about membership, see the membership page on this site, the APA independent member site (new window) or you can contact the APA at 15 Greycoat Place, London, SW1P 1BN or on 020 7664 3096.
There are however, a number of other ways you can become involved in your police authority.
If you have training in diversity issues and have a good deal of high standard recruitment experience you could be eligible to be an independent assessor on an Independent Member Selection Panel. For more information contact Neil King or Rebecca Craig in the Home Office Police Reform Unit on 020 7035 4858.
You may instead be interested in applying to be a Home Secretary’s appointee on an Independent Member Selection Panel. All vacancies of this type are advertised on the Public Appointments Website. (new window)
