This year saw Cleveland Police emerge from the HM Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services ‘Engaged’ status with some impressive performance figures; Tom Gash, Managing Director of strategy and decision-making consultancy Leapwise Advisory – which worked with the force on its improvement journey – sets out some of the key steps forces need to take to achieve a successful turnaround.

ALT Emerging from ‘Engage’ The seven pillars of successful turnaround
Looking forward to this one
"An action-packed thriller with lots of twists and turns... had me turning the pages frantically" - love this review of #Committed from @Locky_football 🤩 Thanks so much for hosting this stop on the blog tour, Sarah! 🙌
@Wildfirebks @jackbutler
Everyone in this has terrible communication skills. Could learn a thing or two from police training around communication in critical incidents! Or rugby referees/ assistants for that matter. Not confirming what they're checking for, not being specific on verdict etc 🙀

I'm super-excited to announce that my new thriller #Committed is out Aug 1st with @Wildfirebks @headlinepg (print Oct 12th)
It follows former CIA operative Ellen McGinley as she tries to stop a domestic terror attack in the US.
You can pre-order it here: geni.us/CommittedCM
Looking forward to this with @SuptParm - who has a very topical and powerful new book out 'Black and Blue' on her life in policing. Her story is inspirational; some of her experiences are shocking. Society and policing is debating how to build trust in policing - do join in.

RT: For anyone in policing, or interested in policing, and wishing to get a feel for the history and heritage of the service, well worth 5 mins looking at @PolHisSoc1985 and pressing ‘media’ and scrolling through the photos…

🚨Hiring Alert🚨: Is this you? If so, look at the second job here: youthendowmentfund.org.uk/ca…
For clarity, at last CSR, HO resource spending was planned at £15.2bn in 22/3, £15.6bn (23/4) & £15.7bn (24/5). Now down to 14.6bn (22/3), 15.4bn (23/4) & 15.5bn (24/5) despite inflation. Spend drop is ~£200m p.a. but much more this year (HMT grabbing underspends in advance?).
What does Budget mean for @ukhomeoffice & @MoJGovUK ?
Home Office will get £1 billion LESS for day-to-day spending (resource) between 2022/23 & 2024/25 than planned for in last year’s Autumn statement.
£45.5 bn compared to £46.5 bn.
But £500 million MORE for capital spending

The autumn statement explained in just about two minutes. Do take a look
"The next few years look grim in terms of living standards, the biggest reduction in household incomes, possibly on record and certainly within recent generations."

Public spending cuts including policing look likely; @Tom_Gash looks at how policing can navigate this harsh reality & the current window of opportunity to prepare a case for protection from cuts & drive productivity improvements locally & nationally.
policinginsight.com/features…
NEW ARTICLE (by me): Policing is in for another round of spending pressure and everyone in policing needs to prepare to fight against disproportionate cuts, and make sure services for the public are protected. How can we do this? #policing #austerity policinginsight.com/features…
Relevant to current police funding formula debates... I am not holding out much hope, to be honest!
Funding for local services increasingly unrelated to need. Council funding based on data up to 20 years old - and govt has again delayed reform. School, council and police funding has been cut much more for poorer and needier areas.
Not good enough

Does anyone know of research on the relative effects on officer welfare of 8, 10 and 12 hour shifts (and the consequent change in number of rest days)?
