Jordan Study Group visit

In November, a group of senior officers and front-line staff from Jordan visited Suffolk Constabulary for a study visit.

This trip followed Chief Constable Rachel Kearton receiving a request to facilitate the visit.

The group explored various areas of Suffolk Constabulary from 25 November to 27 November in order to collect examples of how to fully reconstruct themselves in a modern way. 

On their first day, the group were greeted by Detective Chief Superintendent Jane Topping at Martlesham PHQ before they were sent off to explore a variety of areas of policing. During this visit, they also met a wide array of officers, such as A/Detective Inspector Rory Prior, Superintendent Jasvinder Kaur, DI Brett Harris, Detective Superintendent Nicola Wallace and Detective Superintendent Angus Moir.

During their three-day visit, the areas the group explored included:

• Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH)
• Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC)
• Criminal Prosecution Service (CPS) 
• Child protection
• Domestic Abuse Video Response (DAVR)

On their first day, the group were presented with gifts at Landmark House by ACC Eamonn Bridger.

ACC Bridger said: “This was a fantastic opportunity for mutual learning, networking and developing cultural understanding across both forces. I’m very proud that we, as a force, were able to facilitate this visit and provide these officers and staff members with, hopefully, a rewarding and constructive experience and some valuable knowledge that I hope they will take home and share.”
