Reliance in Police services
Today the Police Modernisation Programme is challenging long held ideas about which functions should be delivered by warranted police officers and which functions could be undertaken by others to improve efficiency and effectiveness and enabling more resources to be focused on higher priority activities.
A Professional Custody Workforce
Reliance was the first private company to provide police custody assistants at Hereford in 1999. We now employ 424 officers operating in 30 centres with over 470 cells across Cleveland, Sussex, Thames Valley, Warwickshire and West Mercia. Our officers help process and look after over 220,000 detainees annually, including taking DNA samples and fingerprints, managing electronic ID parades, interpreters and forensic medical examinations.
Other Services
To support our Custody contracts Reliance Secure Task Management is also able to offer, Forensic Medical Examiners, DNA and drug testing, management of electronic ID parades and various training courses for police officers such as first aid refresher courses.
