Gwent Police Federation

Gwent Forum - spring edition out now

27 March 2023

The spring edition of the Gwent Police Federation magazine Forum is out now.

Branch chair Matthew Candy joins the calls for a 17 per cent pay rise for police officers to reflect the cost of living crisis and cuts to wages over the past two decades.

Read about the results of the latest pay and morale survey and how it plays a key role in the Federation’s campaigning work for improved pay and conditions.

Matthew recognises the contribution of Special Constables to policing and there’s a focus on the Government’s Uplift recruitment programme as it nears its deadline.

The Federation pays tribute to Ian Johnston, the Force’s first Police and Crime Commissioner.

Find out about your rights to paid leave during the teacher strikes, about a new wellbeing toolkit for investigators, and about pay and entitlements for members planning to take maternity leave.

It’s all in the latest edition of Forum, which is out now.
