On Friday, October 14, His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary Fire and Rescue Services published its report into Lancashire Police following an extensive inspection earlier this year, but how did the force do?

Lancashire is a good force who listens to its communities, responds to their concerns, and works well with partners to keep people in Lancashire safe, according to the report published by HMICFRS.

What does Lancashire Police do well?

The constabulary was graded ‘good’ in six areas – engaging and treating the public with fairness and respect, preventing crime and anti-social behaviour, protecting vulnerable people, managing offenders and suspects, building and supporting the workforce, and strategic planning, organisational management and value for money.

HM Inspectors also recognised that the constabulary had responded quickly to feedback in areas where improvements were required and noted that these issues will have been addressed by the time the report is published.
