Vision and values

A strategic alliance has been formed between Warwickshire Police and West Mercia Police in order to enable both forces to meet the challenge of reducing policing budgets.  By working more closely together the forces will benefit from greater operational and organisational resilience.

To facilitate joint working, the forces have developed a new shared vision and set of values.  These provide a unified purpose for the two organisations and a clear direction to our workforce and our stakeholders how the forces will operate.

Vision

Protecting people from harm

Values

We will:

	Listen and engage			Seek out better ways of working

Our vision and values form the basis of the alliance's organisational culture - a set of shared attitudes, goals, practices and aspirations.
