This year we have achieved some great things both internally and externally. We broke the glass ceiling in promotions with success not only at Sergeant rank but also at senior leave at Inspector and after 15 years (check this fact) at Chief inspector rank with three BAME were promoted in the recent process.

These has also been some of the significant milestones and partnership working with our community which should also be acknowledged and celebrate. Together we marked the 20th anniversary of the death of Stephen Lawrence, celebrated Vikhaskiand Diwali and most recent the 70th Windrush Anniversary which has been recognised locally and nationally.

BAPA invite you to an evening to celebrate immense presence that BAME have to delivering a quality service to our community by

acknowledging the contribution of individuals with awards such as Police Officer of the Year, Police Staff of the Year, Community Champion plus others.

There will also be entertainment and raffle prizes on the night in aide of our charity ACLT (full details to follow nearer the date)

So please come and join us in at our BAPA Awards to celebrate the pride with which our officers, staff and community continue to serve the West Midlands community.
