About Us

Who are we?


We are an Association of Christians who are members of the Police Service. For over 125 years the Christian Police Association has worked with those in the Police Service, following the example of our founder, Catherine Gurney OBE, who is perhaps best remembered for founding convalescent homes for police officers in the North and South of England.

Many have found that is is possible to be a committed Christian in the Police Service but with the rigours of shift work and other commitments, it is often difficult to be fully involved in the life of their church.

We believe that fellowship with other believers is important and especially with those who understand the problems associated with police work.

Our mission is to....

  • Glorify Jesus Christ in the Police Service.
  • Encourage and support Christians in the Police Service

 

Reaching out

The pressures on members of the Police Service today are greater than ever and these can place real strain on those individuals and their loved ones.
