  1. ‘Marginal Gains’Improving police engagement with young people in need of a safeguarding responseCSE and Policing Knowledge Hub Keeley Howard, DI Ivon Beer & Dr Fiona Factor Police Knowledge Fund Showcase College of Policing 27.11.17

  2. Feelings about participating - Hopes: • “To support each other” • For the police to “change things when they go back” • “Learning from each other’s’ experiences” • “Hear everyone’s side- both adult and young person” • “Good to see a police officer a bit more loose”- they’re quite scary normally • “We are police officers, but we are also people. I want the young people to see the human aspect” • To make a difference: That change comes as a result of the project and that young people have a better experience when in contact with police • If we help now then it will be less bad later on: young people will know their rights; police will know law; police will talk to young people in a calm way • Police to think about how they investigate, understand their role

  3. Feelings about participating - Concerns: • Hoping that “communication does not break down” • That we are “unable to interact with each other because we have different views” • Discrimination about how you look or talk • Police being in control – or holding the power • Barriers between police and young people - them v’s us • Police may not listen - that they will be judgemental. • Young people behaving poorly – it might reflect on other young people and police view • Police might not read what we produce or listen or change • Only short term change - just paying lip service

  4. Lake Windermere - October 2016 7 police officers from the Met, GMP, and Cumbria, 12 Experts by Experience (EBE) from London, Birmingham, Cambridgeshire and Derby. 3 project workers, 4 staff from University of Bedfordshire & 2 Brathay instructors

  5. Co-production? 1. What were the key areas of learning for you from working togetherin this collaborative way? 2.  What were the key challenges? 3. What made it work? 4.  What was the impact of this project on you • Personally, • Professionally, and • Organisationally?

  6. Key messages for successful co-production • The right question or issue – shared ownership • The right people/stakeholders - shared commitment and willing to take risks/give up power and time. • Appropriate facilitation methods • Solution-focussed – don’t dwell on the problem • See young people as part of the solution • Plan for legacy

  7. The legacy outputs • A poster for all police stations/custody suites (2000) • A film for use in training new police recruits • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np5dZ7dlkF8&feature=youtu.be • Dissemination of messages at research forums and conferences across the country • Further information: www.uobcsepolicinghub.org.uk
