The Police Service and The Trust

The Prince's Trust needs exceptional police officers and staff to be Team Leaders or Assistant Team Leaders - people who can support, inspire and motivate a group of young people.

Hundreds of police officers and staff have worked with The Trust over the last decade - actively supported by the Police Service. Team is a unique personal development opportunity for 16-25 year olds who have faced barriers in their lives and Team Leaders are the glue that binds the Team together.

Why police officers and staff?

We know from experience that they make excellent leaders: their experience of life, background and training prepare them for the roles perfectly. Police officers and staff have professional and personal skills that make for great leaders and influential role models. Please click here to find out more about how the partnership works.

I am very clear that this type of partnership – between the police, local authority and the voluntary sector – provides a really powerful basis for developing programmes to reduce re-offending.
