Suraksha Andhra Pradesh Police

The SURAKSHA Andhra pradesh Police Monthly Journal is funded in part by police officers who pay subscriptions from their wages. We are not funded by the public. Our core purpose was to reflect our commitment to act in the public interest, with public accountability, alongside our accountability to our members.

Aims & objectives

Suraksha has a statutory obligation to ensure that the views of our members are accurately relayed to government, opinion formers and key stakeholders. To ensure this we measure the work we do and what we seek to achieve against our organisational aims and objectives.


Represent and support

Aim: To represent and promote the interests and welfare of our members, and to support colleagues to achieve the required professional standards.

We do this by:
meeting our statutory responsibilities
representing our members’ interests in matters of discipline, diversity, health and safety, welfare, pensions, claims and member services and many other issues
ensuring that representatives have the required skills and abilities to fulfil their role and meet their statutory responsibilities
providing national and local representation to ensure that our members receive appropriate training to deliver a professional police service.

Influence

Aim: To influence internal and external decision makers at local and national levels on matters affecting our members and the police service.

We do this by:
providing clear leadership locally and nationally on issues affecting the membership
listening to and reflecting issues concerning our members
maintaining an effective communications strategy
engaging with all internal and external stakeholders and decision makers
putting evidence-based information in the hands of decision makers.
