If you have a family member or close friend who works in the police, we’re here for you too.
Working in policing throws up unique challenges and this can have a wider impact on the wellbeing of families.
You’ll find resources and support for families and friends in this section of our website.
Three-quarters of family members report feeling concerned about the wellbeing of a loved one who works in policing. Three in five say that balancing the demands of police work and family life is a challenge.
OK family life brings together resources and support for families and friends – including advice on living with a shift worker, nutrition tips for the whole family, and how to spot the signs of trauma and stress in a loved one.
You can also find us on social media: Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn.
Free gift for children and young people with a loved one in policing
A role in policing can mean parents and care givers sometimes miss out on family time. It has an impact on family life and can be really hard to explain to children.
That’s why we’re giving away a very special gift which includes a copy of the Red Robber Raid book and activity pack, along with our gorgeous Oscar Kilo dog soft toy.
We appreciate all that you do
We know that having a loved one in policing can impact family life, and we want to say thank you.
