I have had the opportunity to spend sometime with Cumbria Police this month, starting off at Cumbria’s Chief Constables Leadership event. Chief Constable Craig Mackey launched Cumbria’s Leadership Charter setting out his clear vision and expectations for all staff to take responsibility to lead, encourage, act and perform:

"Our leaders will take responsibility to make Cumbria one of the safest places to live, work and visit in the country."

Cumbria Police also had a guest speaker from the Energy Project on increasing performance through increasing staffs energy. This video will give you a better understanding and can be viewed by clciking here.

I have also spent the day with Ken Jewell from Cumbria South BCU, Ken gave me a great overview of the BCU that covers a massive area including Windermere, Ulverston, Kendal and Barrow to name a few. You can follow Cumbria South’s events on Twitter, at www.twitter.com/cumbriapolice

Ken invited me to join in on their two day Citizen Focus training event ran by Mike Alderson from Open Eye Communications, at the YMCA National HQ. This gave me a chance to meet all their Inspectors and some of their partners, as well as learn from Mike (who is also on Twitter). Many thanks Ken.

Also this month I spent the day with Neil Sladen from Lancashire Police, I had the chance to go over their Policing Pledge and Neighbourhood Policing work and later that day I attended the Layton PACT meeting at St Marks Church Blackpool. Before attending the PACT I had a quick walk around the local shops and found Lancashire’s Policing Pledge Posters advertising the meeting and priorities in the windows. The meeting was well attended and attracted two new members.
