A Brief History  

 

Our journey began in 1979, formed by the committee of the British Police Olympic (Amateur) Boxing Association rooted in the belief that community engagement is vital to fostering positive relationships between young people, law enforcement and communities. 

 

Since our inception, we have been dedicated to providing educational resources and programmes that support the development of children across the United Kingdom. 

 

Operated by a determined and passionate team “the only” pan-United Kingdom sports and citizenship organisation of serving and retired police officers, where children and young people can thrive, and build a stronger safer future not just for themselves but for others around them. 

 

We understand that meaningful engagement with hard-to-reach communities is crucial, especially for those whose lives may have been touched by crime. 

 

 

Our programmes, not only teach vital skills and instil discipline but also promote teamwork and resilience, and many of these have become part of our portfolio of work in a myriad of settings including prison and post release rehabilitation and mentoring, work within Mosques, support for post war zone veterans, sports programmes for the deaf and other disability groups and so much more. 

 

These activities allow young participants to channel their energy positively, making invaluable connections with police officers who serve as mentors and role models. The ethos of our clubs is about building trust, understanding, and support within communities. 

 

We strive to dismantle barriers and create pathways for all children and young adults, especially those who may feel alienated or disconnected from mainstream society. 

By promoting engagement through our various sports programmes and educational resources and roadshows, we work tirelessly to inspire hope and empowerment in every young person we meet. 

 

At The Police Community Clubs GB we remain committed to our mission, championing the transformative power of education and sport in cultivating a brighter future for young people across the UK.
