Staffordshire Police Federation members are being encouraged to vote for the next national chair before the election process comes to an end on Wednesday night.
Branch chair Phil Jones said the election gave members an opportunity to shape the direction of the Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) with the police service facing huge changes in the coming years.
“This is a critical moment for the PFEW,” said Phil. “It’s an opportunity for members to have their say and to influence the future of the Federation.
“There is still time to vote so I’d encourage all of our members to engage in the democratic process and to get involved before it is too late.”
Voting closes at 11.59pm on Wednesday (30 March).
Members can choose from three candidates. Brian Booth is chair of the West Yorkshire Police Federation, Ché Donald is the national vice-chair, and Steve Hartshorn is a National Board member and firearms lead.

All Federation members are eligible to vote and should have received instructions on the process directly to their email inbox.
The person elected to the role will take up the post from Friday (1 April).
