Vulnerability

Managing demand on services through working together

Nationally, policing reform is underway to improve the management of risk and increase focus on prevention and vulnerability. Managing the more vulnerable members of our community in an effective way will allow the police and other organisations working together, to provide a better quality service, reduce problems that arise repeatedly and help reduce demand on services.

There are three overlapping areas I want to highlight in particular within the vast area of ‘vulnerability’:

• Mental health

• Adults at risk

• Service quality
