ABOUT US
The Association is the sole representative body of superintending ranks who are members of police forces in England and Wales maintained under section 1 of the Police Act 1996. It is so designated under section 64 of the Act, which provides for recognition by the Secretary of State of bodies representing officers who are not members of the Police Federation.
Today's police staff associations owe their existence to the efforts of individuals who, during the 19th Century and the early years of the 20th Century, fought and often suffered to achieve decent conditions of service. Police officers were denied rights of combination and representation for nearly 100 years. Although their status meant that superintendents generally took no direct part in the sometimes turbulent disputes of those times, government eventually came to recognise the need for all ranks, including the superintendents, to have proper representation

Evidence-based policy should not be a radical concept. It needs to be celebrated.
As part of the ESRC Festival of Social Sciences, the Deafness Cognition And Language Research Centre (DCAL) hosted an event exploring the powerful benefits of bilingualism in spoken and sign languages, for hearing and deaf people alike - benefits that reach hearing and deaf people alike.
This flagship event is a forum for chief executives and chairs of the housing sector to network with each other and learn from a range of high-profile and inspirational speakers from media, political and housing backgrounds. It takes place in Park Plaza Victoria, London.
Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is an incurable lifelong condition arising from brain damage caused by maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy. The effects may include physical, mental, behavioural and learning disabilities. However, if diagnosed, the right strategies can transform the lives of those affected. This new Guardian Social Care Network half-day seminar in association with TACT Fostering and Adoption will explain the condition and show what can be done to help.
We often hear of the ‘Americanisation’ of abortion politics in the UK, but unpicking the substantive threats to women’s reproductive rights in the US can be a challenge. The 2012 bpas public lecture will explore the current state of abortion politics in the US and, at a time when abortion appears increasingly politicised in the UK, reflect on what lessons can be drawn by those keen to protect women’s reproductive autonomy elsewhere.
