Policing

In the Policing sector, Leaders Unlocked provides young people with a platform to influence decisions about policing and crime prevention. In partnership with Police & Crime Commissioners (PCCs) and Combined Authorities, we have developed the Youth Commission model to enable young people to inform policing decisions in their regions.

"The Youth Commission plays a vital role in addressing serious violence through inclusion and collaboration."

Alison Lowe OBE | West Yorkshire Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime

Project Spotlight

Youth Commission

The Youth Commission on Police and Crime provides a platform for young people to influence the future of policing and crime prevention in their local areas.

The Commission allows young people aged 14-25 years to work in partnership with their Police and Crime Commissioners and police forces to tackle urgent issues such as reducing youth offending, relationships with the police, and support for young victims and witnesses. Read More

"The commitment and time invested by each member of the Youth Commission have not only strengthened community relations but have also contributed significantly to making our county a safer and more inclusive place for everyone."
