IAG
Independent Advisory Groups
Nottinghamshire Police works with a range of Independent Advisory Groups (IAGs) that represent the interests of minority groups and communities across Nottinghamshire.
The IAGS are:
¨ Minority Ethnic Advisory Group (MEAG)
¨ Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender IAG (LGBT)
¨ Faith Watch IAG
¨ Police Disability Advisory Group (PDAG)
¨ Community Advisory Group for Learning and Development
Each of our four territorial policing divisions also developed an IAG representing a range of backgrounds and interests.
The IAGs act as ‘critical friends’ of the force, offering ideas and advice on aspects of policing policy, strategy, practice and service delivery that affect or are important to minority groups and communities in particular.
The IAGs represent a wide range of backgrounds, beliefs experiences and interests. Each IAG is made up of people who have volunteered to help Nottinghamshire Police understand and meet the diverse needs of the communities it serves.
- Nottinghamshire Police values the contribution of the IAGs in:
¨ Helping the force to deliver an inclusive, responsive, customer-focused policing service
¨ Supporting open and effective communication with minority groups and communities
¨ Helping the force to meet its statutory equality duties to provide a fair service to all and challenge discrimination
¨ Building increased community trust and confidence in the police
