Police Mutual proves itself a Force for Good again
FOR over 150 years Police Mutual has been committed to helping serving
and retired Police Officers, Staff, Specials and their families with their
finances.
Force for Good, its award winning national community sponsorship
programme, awarded ₤50,000 in support of successful local projects throughout
the country this spring. In particular, 212 initiatives received grants ranging
from ₤100 to ₤1,000.
Police Mutual is a commercially run, yet not for profit organisation with the
vision of supporting the wellbeing of the Police family.
This group, which
equates to 1 in 132 of the UK adult population is invited to nominate causes
that improve the lives and wellbeing of their local communities.
Stephen Mann, Chief Executive of Police Mutual, explains:- "At Police
Mutual we are all about improving the lives of the Police family, and we are
particularly focussed around financial, mental, physical and community
wellbeing. Force for Good is now in its fourth phase, and it's great to see even
more members of the Police family nominating local projects and causes close to
their hearts, some of which they know through their local policing work. Yet
again, we have been astounded by the impressive volume and quality of
applications received. So far in 2017 Force for Good has received a total of
2,708 nominations, meaning that we are well on track to exceed the 2,986
nominations received across both tranches in 2016."
The 2nd round of 2017 nominations will open on 1 September 2017.
The 2nd 2017 nomination window will open in autumn 2017, with Police Mutual
pledging a further ₤50,000 to Force for Good initiatives, bringing the total up
to ₤100,000 across the year.
