Staff Associations

Disability Focus Group

The Disability Focus Group was established in 1997 to enable disabled members of staff to identify issues, which affect disabled people across the Force as employees, and also in the community in general, as users of the services GMP provides. Through its representatives, these issues are then raised at command level through the Equality Issues Group, which is chaired by the Assistant Chief Constable, HR and Development.

The group is currently comprised of representatives from the Equal Opportunities Unit, police staff and more recently police officers, who are disabled or have an interest in disability issues in employment.
