Staffordshire Police Federation members can put forward colleagues and projects that have made a difference to the wellbeing of officers and staff for a national award.

Nominations are open for the annual Oscar Kilo awards, which recognise the fantastic work that has been done - and continues to be done - to provide wellbeing support across UK policing.

Lee Robinson, Staffordshire Police Federation chair, said: “The Oscar Kilo awards are now a fixture in the policing calendar and give us a chance to recognise the unsung work that goes into supporting the wellbeing of Staffordshire Police officers and staff.

“There are the most amazing people involved in keeping us mentally and physically fit and the Oscar kilo awards are a chance to shout about them.”

Oscar Kilo, the national police wellbeing service, is inviting nominations in seven categories:

  • Creating the environment
  • Leadership
  • Absence management
  • Mental health
  • Occupational health
  • Personal resilience
  • Protecting the workforce.

There is also a special non-police award for other organisations such as the fire and rescue service, who are working towards completing the Blue Light Wellbeing Framework (BLWF).

The deadline for nominations is 10 March and the winners will be announced at the awards event this summer.
