The National Police Wellbeing Service (Oscar Kilo) was launched in 2019 to provide support and guidance for police forces across England and Wales to improve and build organisational wellbeing. It is an evidence based, sector specific service which has been developed for policing, by policing, and is designed to meet the unique needs of police forces, officers and staff, police families and leavers.
Sitting with the College of Policing, and working closely with the National Police Chiefs’ Council and the Home Office, we want to: • help police forces build world–class wellbeing support for everyone who works for them
• improve knowledge and understanding of help and support available
• reduce stigma around seeking support or help
• encourage people to support themselves and realise their own potential
• improve personal resilience and self-help skills
