Equipped our officers and staff with the tools and confidence to address issues related to race and racism

particularly among Black individuals, the Race at Work programme proved to be a transformative experience for our officers and staff. Louisa Joseph's expertise ensured that our participants not only gained confidence in identifying and addressing issues related to race and racism but also developed a profound understanding of the implications if these matters are left unattended. The knowledge gained ensured that our participants were not only informed but inspired to actively identify and address biases, disparities and issues surrounding race.

Under the guidance of Louisa Joseph, the programme equipped our officers and staff with the tools and confidence to address issues related to race and racism within our workplace. It has empowered our participants to champion anti-racist values and behaviours, aligning seamlessly with our vision for a service that is both anti-racist and trusted by all communities. The insights provided have significantly contributed to our ongoing efforts outlined in the Police Race Action Plan, further demonstrating our commitment to creating a workplace that reflects these values. The positive feedback received from our attendees has been echoed by our senior leaders, who commend the program's effectiveness in fostering a culture of inclusion and understanding. The positive impact has rippled through our organisation, with participants eagerly sharing their newfound knowledge and understanding with colleagues across various departments, enhancing our commitment to anti-racism and cultivate a workplace that is not only aware but actively engaged in challenging racism.
