Paul Bradford was a serving police officer for thirty years rising to the rank of Inspector. As a single parent family he strove to manage his career to ensure that he was able to best look after his family. His time in community policing enabled him to spend time with victims of crime in ways since eliminated by the new managerialism. He brounght the insights and sensitivity that he gained to his research 'An Emotional Response: The theoretical case for the development of emotional literacy and procedural justice in police call handling.' In this conversation Paul talks about his research and some of the wider implications for police forces.
This conversation is part of a double bill we release along with Sarah-Jane Lennie's research on supporting police officer’s emotional wellbeing through the exploration of officer’s lived experience and the impact of organisational culture on individual mental health.
