The London Police Service Board (LPSB) has adopted a Critical Points Policy as a significant step toward strengthening police governance and public accountability.
As the London Police Service Board (the Board) begins the critical work of shaping our next Strategic Plan, we will ensure that this process is both thoughtful and inclusive.
Inclusive governance goes beyond checking boxes on representation. In today’s policing landscape, it means building a workplace that reflects the whole community. Race, gender, lived experiences, age, ability, culture, socioeconomic background, and the many intersecting identities that shape how people experience safety and policing are included in what it means for the London Police Service (LPS) to be reflective of the community.
Attending a Board meeting is an excellent way to stay informed, and to better understand how policing is shaped at the governance level.
The London Police Service (LPS) has formally taken the 30 Forward pledge, joining a growing network of agencies committed to equity, fairness, and stronger public service. On May 5, 2025, the LPS launched its public campaign in support of 30 Forward continuing efforts to remove barriers for women in policing through improved data collection, enhanced community outreach, and increased internal engagement.
