World Class Policing Awards

Initial World Class Policing awards were recently announced as reported here. The awards “reflect that effective modern day policing requires partnership and collaboration, whether in teams of officers and staff; collaboration between forces; multi-agency operations; wider public sector involvement; and collaboration also with the supplier community and beyond.” The overall winner was UK’s Devon & Cornwall Police for their Operation Encompass initiative through which police and schools give careful and immediate attention to children who have experienced police-attended incidents of domestic abuse. Other winners came from the UK, New Zealand, and Australia.
