Refreshed National Policing Digital Strategy 2025 to 2030

The National Policing Digital Strategy 2025-2030 is an updated version of the original 2020 strategy, and is jointly owned by the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) and the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners (APCC). Alongside the Strategy an infographic covers key points at a glance.

The refresh of the Strategy has been supported by the Police Digital Service (PDS), which has included comprehensive consultation across police forces, the APCC, the Home Office, the College of Policing and colleagues from the technology industry, with over 100 different organisations included and more than 200 individual responses.

The focus of the strategy is based on policing’s ambition to embrace digital capability to improve public safety, achieving the Policing Vision 2030 by having the most trusted and engaged policing service in the world, working together to make communities safer and stronger. It sits alongside the NPCC Science and Technology Strategy, demonstrating a clear and tangible direction of travel for DDaT deliverables that will be achieved in the next five years. The delivery of the strategy will be overseen by the NPCC Digital, Data and Technology Coordinating Committee (DDaTCC) via an annual delivery plan, which enables both local forces and national sub-boards across policing to fulfil the objectives of the strategy using the seven enabling pillars.
