Over two days, our delegates will receive key updates from the Federation and hear about the work we’ll be focusing on in the months ahead and beyond into 2026.
The event will also feature a keynote speech from our National Chair and the presentation of some of our annual awards, recognising excellence across the service - including the Detectives Awards, Outstanding Contribution to Women in Policing, and Response Officer of the Year.
The 2025 Conference will be in-person only and open exclusively to elected delegates, who have been formally chosen to represent their branches. However, we will be live-streaming the event via our YouTube channel and encourage all Reps and Members to watch live or catch up later.
A special thank you to Slater and Gordon, our headline sponsor for their support of this year’s conference.
