People Committee - 29 August 2023

Date : 29 August 2023

Location : online


Emerging Themes & Next Steps

Full detail of the key themes identified through discussion can be found in the event summary at appendix A.  Delegates were keen to use academic research and insights to further refine practice, to roll out pockets of good practice across the organisation and continue to challenge stigma around mental ill health.

A series of commitments were made in response to the event, which are detailed in appendix A. These focus on putting in place, across the policing system, a whole system approach to prompting wellbeing and preventing trauma.  Progress against these commitments will be reported through committee as action areas develop in line with ongoing work within the People and Development function.  Further detail on timescales for delivery of these actions will be provided to November committee.
