Who we are

The Police Foundation is the only independent charity focused entirely on developing people's knowledge and understanding of policing and challenging the police service and the government to improve policing for the benefit of the public. The Police Foundation acts as a bridge between the public, the police and the government, while being owned by none of them.  Read more...    

Our mission 

The Police Foundation improves policing and promotes the safety and security of every citizen by providing an independent, evidence-led perspective on policing and related matters. It has three main aims:

  • To pose challenging questions and promote debate on policing and police reform
  • To provide commentary, knowledge and insight into contemporary policing issues
  • To undertake research to inform policing policy and improve practice
