Protecting the Protectors

‘Cheap, uncomfortable and scruffy’ these are the words that delegates at a recent policing conference used to describe their own uniform. Last year we brought you the results of the Police Federation led uniform survey and now we bring you up to date with this NPCC led panel to share how they are taking a pragmatic, scientific approach to developing uniform and body armour that works for everyone. A single national policing catalogue could well be the answer – but do you agree? Join our panel to contribute to this discussion about uniform today and find out about the Future Uniform Project.
