Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary serves a vast area of different communities. In order to create an engaging and effective organisation we need to reflect the diverse communities that we serve.

Historically, it has been found that particular groups face disadvantage in joining or progressing through organisations. These can be under-represented groups or individuals with a protected characteristic.

Therefore, positive action can be used to reduce this disadvantage, in the form of taking active steps to support those through recruitment or promotion stages. The Positive Action Team is here to assist in this process and to make Hampshire and IOW Constabulary a diverse and inclusive organisation
