This penultimate episode of a short series of the podcast called Tech Perspectives is brought to you in partnership with The Emergency Tech Show and the Police Digital Service.

Catherine talks to Scot Dunn Chief Digital and Innovation Officer for Humberside Police.

This conversation builds nicely on from those earlier in this series as we look at how a police force can innovate when it has limited budgets.

Scot shares four innovations from his force: from the officer on the beat, to the victim who is having the worst day of their lives and just wants to know what’s going on, to an efficient way of running non-emergency call handling and ending with predicting officer wellbeing needs.

It just shows innovation takes many forms, requires a healthy risk appetite and a willingness to be OK with failure because that's how you learn.

Speakers:

Catherine Levin, Emergency Services Times

Scot Dunn, Humberside Police
