Policing Overseas: The Good, the Bad and the Unexpected
Ever wondered what it’s really like to work as a police officer overseas?
Join four officers who’ve been there and done it, across St Helena, Diego Garcia, the Falklands, Guernsey and beyond, for an honest, 60-minute live conversation about policing a long way from home.
What we’ll cover
The opportunities, and how people actually end up in overseas roles
The practical realities: the day-to-day job, living on remote postings, family life
The challenges, and the things nobody tells you before you go
Plenty of stories, the good, the bad and the unexpected
Who it’s for
Serving and retired officers, whether you’re actively considering overseas work or just curious about what’s out there.
Your questions, answered
This is a conversation, not a lecture. Add your question when you register and we’ll put it to the panel, or bring it along and ask live on the day. If you’ve served overseas yourself, come and share your experience too.
