Prioritising inclusion

Forensic Services, alongside SPA Corporate, are working with a specialist company - INvolve - as part of our priority to understand how to create a culture in Forensic Services where everyone can be at their best, valuing our differences and ensuring that how we work includes everyone. The Director wrote to all staff at the start of 2024 to make clear that this is a key priority for Forensic Services.

As the part of the initial work, INvolve have carried out a survey and are hosting focus groups which, after evaluation, will provide us with the practical steps to take around inclusion, highlight areas of success and improvement, an overview of the Forensic Services demographic profile, and key feedback from the organisation to the senior team which we will then act on.
