48% of police community support officers at Thames Valley Police are female

    Women currently make up 45% of the general workforce at Thames Valley Police, compared to just 23% in the 1980's.

    In the past 12 months 43.4% of all Thames Valley's new recruits have also been women. 

    Females also represent 35.5% of Thames Valley Police's serving police officers.

    In a bid to recruit more females, Thames Valley Women's Network say: "Much is being done in force to develop women and support women, we have a very active Women's Network alongside other staff support networks that cover faith, ethnicity and sexual orientation. 

    "We are encouraging more women to join our specialist operational units that ever before."
