A UK wide charity which exists to assist serving and veteran police officers, staff, and volunteers, irrespective of rank, who have been’ harmed as a result of policing’, by providing practical and emotional help including personal financial grants, and psychological assistance. 

If you’ve not already done so, would invite you and your colleagues to consider registering for our newsletter, here; https://www.policecare.org.uk/

Because there is no subscription to Police Care UK, (we don’t want this to be a barrier for those needing help), and we receive no state funding, all the assistance we provide relies on donations. We are very grateful to all individuals across all forces for supporting Police Care UK via Payroll Giving scheme, Donations, or any other ways of involvement.

New Grant Applications Paused

While we expand and improve our grants programme, with effect from July 21, this service has been paused to make some key changes.

This does not affect any applications currently being processed, however, new requests for financial support will not be accepted until the beginning of November 2025.

More updates will be announced in the coming months. Thanks for your patience.

Two New Ways to Support Police Care UK

Got any out of date holiday cash lying around? Or perhaps a broken mobile phone or watch clogging up your kitchen draws?

Now you can clear out your clutter and raise money to support the physical and psychological wellbeing of police harmed through their policing role.

Police Care UK is delighted to announce to new ways in which you can support our work to reduce the impact of trauma experienced by those in UK policing.

We’ve added Recycling for Good Causes and giveacar.co.uk as ways you can support us, meaning you can turn unwanted goods – and even your old motor – into cash donations.

Police Firearm Officers Association is a charity able to provide welfare support to members who are serving or retired AFOs, firearms tactical commanders and taser officers.
