A collaboration of faith based organisations who actively work on ‘police related priorities’ in partnership with police and Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) was launched on 21 November 2016 at 10 Downing Street. The launch of Faith and Police Together included Paul Blakey MBE, founder of Street Angels and the Christian Nightlife Initiatives; Debra Green OBE, founder and CEO of Redeeming Our Communities; and Lee Russell, Executive Director of the Christian Police Association.
Faith and Police Together says its objectives are:
- To facilitate stronger links and partnership between faith organisations and Police / PCC with an aim to developing work which benefits the wider community.
- To promote and celebrate existing work in recognition of the outcomes achieved towards the improvement of society.
- To promote networking of faith based projects around Police regions.
