This is such an important piece of work which really leads the way for #ChildFirst in policing & police oversight. Huge thanks to Prof Neal Hazel & his colleagues for their work on this. I do hope all with an interest in children & policing read it.

Really pleased that this strong & ambitious Police and Crime Plan makes the explicit commitment to #ChildFirst building on the important work of Prof Neal Hazel & others that sets out what this could look like for MOPAC & in policing.
