As part of this, they are pleased to announce the launch of the practice bank – an innovative online platform developed by the College of Policing with support from HMICFRS.

Development of the practice bank

This has been designed as a public-facing shared space and provides information on tactics, knowledge and advice across the criminal justice sector. 

HMICFRS will continue to be a key contributor to the development of the practice bank

Sharing the experiences of what works, and even what doesn’t work, will help police forces to learn from each other and better serve the public.

HMICFRS will continue to be a key contributor to the development of the practice bank. They will be identifying examples of promising, new or original practice within policing as they carry out inspections.

Big step towards a single source

These examples, already available through the inspection reports, will be added to the practice bank to ensure they are easy to access.

This is a big step towards providing a single source of the truth to improve outcomes and help them all work together to tackle crime more effectively.
