The Police & Crime Commissioner and Chief Constable are delighted to announce an exceptional opportunity to shape the future of victim services in Bedfordshire.

The service which has been developed over the past year launches on the 1st April 2018 and has been created by the Police and Crime Commissioner to ensure that victims of crime receive the best possible support to cope and recover from their experience.

It will be open to and provide support to victims of all crime types whether those crimes are reported to the police or not. Where the victim chooses to report to the crime to the police, the service will provide information, guidance, practical and emotional support through the criminal justice process and for as long as the individual requires.
Where the victim requires specialist services to support them, for example where the individual has been affected by domestic or sexual violence, or where they have been a victim or witness to serious road collisions, that they receive that support in a timely and coordinated fashion. Supporting victims and where the crime is going through the criminal justice system, to attend court is a vital part of this service.

We have a variety of opportunities available and would like to hear from you if you believe you can help us deliver first class services for victims.
