YEF review of child-centred policing from the perspectives of children 

Entry deadline:
8th July 2025

About the tender

YEF is seeking a team to conduct a review of child-centred policing from the perspectives of children. We want to understand what ‘good’ looks like in interactions with the police, generating specific examples of practice which helps officers to operationalise child-centred policing and engage with children in ways which are grounded in children’s needs and perspectives.  

The study will inform YEF’s recommendations for the policing sector on how to reduce violence amongst children and young people (which will draw on a range of ongoing and completed research work).
