Police Now is a British charity supporting the recruitment of police officers across England & Wales. The social enterprise works with 31 of 43 police forces.[1]
Police Now was initially set up as a graduate scheme by former Detective Chief Inspector David Spencer and Detective Superintendent Tor Garnett at the Metropolitan Police Service.[2] Following its incubation within the Metropolitan Police, Police Now became an independent charitable social enterprise in April 2016.[3] The scheme was inspired by Teach First, the educational initiative that recruits graduates into schools.[4][5]
