WHITE PAPER No. 4: 21st Century Community engagement: the gap between expectations and reality in neighbourhood policing skills.
​This research explores the skill set required to sustain long-term community engagement and involvement of the public in public safety. Previous research has indicated that a long-term stable and skilled implementation team is essential to successful neighbourhood policing (Curtis, 2022) and the skillset of those involved needs to be systematic and widespread. The research involved a survey of 150 police officers’ confidence regarding such skills, triangulated with them showing how they might deliver these skills in a real-world ‘street-level strategising’ exercise.
