One-day programme launched to support under-represented groups in Force

31 August 2022

Members from under-represented groups are being invited to attend a programme which aims to support their growth and development within the Force.

Inspire is a national programme, launched by the College of Policing, designed to assist with retention and progression of people with protected characteristics and under-represented groups across the police service.

The programme, which will be taking place on Wednesday 28 September, at Derbyshire Police headquarters in Ripley, is specifically aimed at those in the early stages of their career.

The one-day session, which involves self-directed learning, sharing experiences and peer support hopes to help develop self-awareness and confidence.

In turn, the programme should provide participants with knowledge, skills, confidence and tools required to encourage retention and progression.

Inspire is a fully inclusive programme and any police constable, police staff or volunteer from any under-represented group within the organisation can participate, especially those who aspire to develop their career in the future.
