What we do Police Now’s mission is to transform communities, reduce crime and anti-social behaviour, and increase the public’s confidence in the police service by recruiting, developing and inspiring outstanding and diverse individuals to be leaders in society and on the policing frontline. Police Now attract, recruit and train outstanding graduates with leadership potential to be inspirational detectives and police officers who transform communities. Not just for people today, but for generations to come. We believe that given the highest levels of support and freedom, detectives and police officers can contribute to changing lives. Equipping participants with core policing skills, our two-year leadership development programmes help develop leadership, communication and problem-solving skills that will serve graduates, and the wider community, for a lifetime. Our National Detective Programme is designed to equip graduates with the core policing skills required in modern investigative work. Throughout the two-year training programme participants play an integral part in solving crimes while developing leadership, communication and problem- solving skills. During our pilot, last year, 93 participants were deployed across eight police forces. Our National Graduate Leadership Programme trains and develops graduates to become leaders in neighbourhood policing. Participants are placed in some of the most challenging communities in England and Wales, getting to know the issues up close and developing innovative ideas and techniques to tackle the challenges residents are facing. WHY WE DO IT We’re looking for talented graduates from all degree disciplines to join our National Detective Programme and National Graduate Leadership Programme to make a lasting difference in some of the most vulnerable communities in England and Wales.
