Your voice in the Policing of Warwickshire

Warwickshire Strategic Independent Advisory Group provides advice on issues relating to Policing Warwickshire. Formed in July 2005 as the Central Independent Advisory Group, it is made up of members of the public who have volunteered their time to offer Warwickshire Police a new and external perspective based on their personal views and experiences which contribute to finding ways of improving the force's policing services to meet the needs of all sections of the community.

Independence is our watchword as we exist to constructively challenge and question how the force polices and to provide feedback, ideas and views on its policies and functions.

Our Role

We are here to add a new dimension to the way Warwickshire Police think about their service provision. We strive to ensure that we:

• Provide advice to Warwickshire Police that helps them recognize the diverse policing needs of communities and to deliver a fair service which secures greater trust and confidence.
• Provide critical analysis of documents.
• Identify ways to improve open and effective consultation between Warwickshire Police and communities.
• Get involved in training as required for example in dealing with stop and search and critical incidents.
