Thames Valley Police Federation, as part of the Police Federation of England and Wales, is the representative body of police officers below the rank of Superintendent.

Established by the Police Act of 1919, the Police Federation was introduced to provide officers with a platform to bring their views on welfare and efficiency to the notice of the government and police authorities.

We can also:

• ~ Offer advice to anyone suffering sexual, racial or other discriminatory harassment

• ~ Speak for and on behalf of rank and file officers in the media and with opinion formers
