Wiltshire Police has a strong ethos of equality and diversity both within the organisation and to the service we provide. We are committed to creating a police service that is representative of the communities we serve, and believe that in this way the Force will be better able to reach the aim to have:

Trained and motivated staff who think, deliver and promote equality and fairness to the public and each other

It is therefore our continuing intention to:

• identify environments where 'under representation' exists
• set appropriate targets
• review policy, processes and perceptions in order to dismantle barriers
• develop initiatives that promote equality and fairness both 'internally' and 'externally', that further the Police Recruitment, Retention and Progression Strategy
• monitor/evaluate development

All members of the Force have responsibility to support these actions.

We would encourage all members of under-represented groups to attend our awareness evenings for Specials, PCSO's or Police Officer roles - members of your family / friends are welcome to come along.
