Dear members,
We wanted to update you about how your local Federation will deliver business and help our members during these unprecedented times.
Firstly, can we reassure you that we are fully engaged in representing your interests at Force Gold meetings where we are working with the force to look after your health and welfare as well as continue to deliver a policing service. In that respect, if you have any concerns which you do not feel are being addressed then please either speak to your local rep or email us at FederationOffice@nthwales.pnn.police.uk. Be assured that we do make strong representations on your behalf and at the highest level. This is not an easy situation for anyone and everyone is working flat out. As your Federation, we are an integral part of that team.
As the situation develops rapidly, the latest position is that the staff within the Federation Office will be working remotely as of 17:00hrs on Thursday 19th March until further notice. Emails will continue to be monitored and responded to as quickly as possible, however, there will be some inevitable delays, for which we apologise for. The Federation Office main telephone number will not be answered. Rest assured Mark Jones and Mel Jones have redirected their landline numbers to their mobile phones.
If you need Federation assistance, please contact your local representative. Details of all our reps can be found by visiting http://www.nwpolfed.org/your-reps/.
There are also many Police Regulation FAQ’s on our website to assist in answering any queries you may have: http://www.nwpolfed.org/faq/. Alternatively email us: FederationOffice@nthwales.pnn.police.uk.
For all enquiries relating to the Group Insurance Scheme, please visit: http://www.nwpolfed.org/group-life-insurance/ for up-to-date information or to speak to Philip Williams & Co Insurance Management contact 01925 604421.
We strongly advise colleagues to continue to monitor the dedicated Coronavirus Forcebook page for latest updates and FAQ’s: http://intranet.nwp.net/sites/Intranet/SitePages/Coronavirus.aspx.
The Force Wellbeing team have produced a really useful guidance document containing information about supportive measures available for Officers and staff at this time.Â
In a Federation ‘call-out’ situation please speak to the Force Incident Manager.
North Wales Police Federation aim to effectively support our Officers and promote the efficiency of the North Wales Police.
We will endeavour to represent and negotiate for our members in a robust, open and honest manner to ensure that officers are treated fairly and considerately at all times by the Force.
We aim to provide a professional and caring service to our members with a view to fostering a relationship which is founded on trust, confidentiality and respect on both sides. We will endeavour to build on that relationship to determine the most appropriate support, advice and action relevant to the individual needs and issues.

DC Steven Bailey is a City of London Police officer who nearly died from #Covid19.
In this new video, he explains why it’s so vital for colleagues to continue to wear PPE and remain socially distant from each other to keep themselves and their families safe from the virus.
Thanks to Police Mutual for their support enabling Steven to tell his story.
There is more information for officers on keeping safe from Covid-19 on the Police Mutual website if you wish to click on it and have a look
