Learn more about equal opportunities in policing with our online awareness event 


Legacy in the Community are working with Gwent Police to promote diversity and inclusivity within the police service and would like to invite you to on online awareness event to discuss the many different roles available within policing that are accessible, flexible, and diverse. 

 The event will take place on Weds 22 June 23 at 10am and is a fantastic opportunity for you to learn more about careers in policing, and to learn about support that is available and the eligibility criteria for different roles.  

 Having a diverse workforce helps to improve public trust and brings different perspectives and experiences that can help with decision-making and problem-solving within the police service. 

 As a public facing organisation, Gwent Police understands that representation matters, and they are committed to ensuring that their workforce is reflective and inclusive of the communities that they protect and reassure.
