Quotes

College of Policing chief executive Chief Constable Alex Marshall said: "People suffering from mental health issues who need to be taken to a place of safety are too often ending up in police custody suites because we are more often than not the service of last resort. It is crucial that those officers who have people detained under section 136 are properly trained and that those in their care get the right help as soon as practicable. Custody officers do receive specific training around mental health in custody, that includes regular updates incorporating any new learning from professionals within the health sector."
