|Summary ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year|||The charity continues
to raise awareness
around
mental
health
related
issues affecting
police officers. Our ambassador
network
is established
now in several forces and welcome packs have been sent to them
including
the mental
health guide. The volunteers
continue to raise||
||||awareness
around the issues police officers face and the mental
health||
||||guide is available
for sharing
and discussion.
One ofour trustees||
||||continues
to liaise with and encourage
the ambassadors
in relation to||
||||fundraising
and possible training.||
||||The charity
is now recognised
for the work that it does in raising mental||
||||health awareness
and representatives
from the charity are invited along||
||||to Force Wellbeing
Days and events where they highlight
the work the||
||||charity does but works alongside
others. For example, a charity||
||||representative
in the Met works alongside
PD Dexter (wellbeing
dog) and||
||||attends
wellbeing
days to discuss openly mental
health issues and||
||||highlights
support
paths.||
||||We continue
to use our website to allow police officers full access to our||
||||mental
health guide and to provide
real life stories from those affected|by|
||||these issues. This is part ofour program
in raising awareness
around||
||||mental
health and demonstrating
that
it is ok not to be ok. We continue|to|
||||highlight
stories and encourage
officers to look out for each other,||
||||recognise the signs of struggle
and to talk to each other. We are finding||
||||that more people are sharing
their stories with us and this can provide||
||||much needed encouragement
to others going through
the same issues.||
||||We have attended
several
national
conferences
which provided
the||
||||opportunity
to speak with police officers from across the United
Kingdom||
||||and internationally
to demonstrate
how we can help officers.||
||||We continue to liaise with Police Services around
the United Kingdom|in|
||||relation
to the support
that we can provide their officers with access to||
||||the Thrive App and encourage
them to include the charity as an option||
||||for those who exhibit mild to moderate
symptoms
of anxiety, depression||
||||and other mental
health distress.||
||||The charity has continued
the partnership
with Thrive: Mental
Health and||
||||Wellbeing —which has the only NHS endorsed
mental
health app. We||
||||have purchased
200 licences, which were fully used during
this period.||
||||We make this app available to any police officer who feels that they||
||||cannot seek or avail of help within
work or privately.
The app has many||
||||functions
but most importantly
users can access counselling
with trained||
||||counsellors
and psychologists.
The quarterly
feedback indicates that||
||||those using the app are getting the help they need and a high percentage||
||||show excellent recovery. We intend to renew this purchase||
||||We are an integral
part ofthe Police Charities
UK umbrella
and one of||
||||our trustees attends the semi-annual
meeting.
Here we continue
to||
||||develop
relationships,
compliment
and learn from each other's work. This||
||||adds to the overall service provided
to police officers nationally.||
||||We promote the work ofthe charity on local and national
media where||
||||appropriate
and support those programmes
that wish to highlight
the||
||||difficulties
that police officers face. We do so to encourage
officers to||
||||take that initial step and ask for help.||
||||Our online store continues
to supplement
the funds raised for us and||
||||helps promote the charity.
All funds raised are used to directly support||
||||the work we do.||
