Our research with Mary Elliott-Davies, one of PFEW’s leading Research practitioners, into the effects of trauma exposure on police officers, including that of incidents specific to the Covid-19 pandemic, featured at annual the DFP conference for the British Psychological Society’s Division of Forensic Psychology (DFP) this year. The event, held online, featured leading psychologists and expert speakers, hosting webinars on the themes of trauma and compassion. The presentation demonstrated the tough conditions officers have been working in, and promoted the joint work of PFEW, Police Care UK and Cambridge University in developing the first-ever UK specific Police Traumatic Events Checklist.
