"Seven out of ten police officers and staff have financial concerns"

As Christmas approaches, Police Friendly and Metfriendly’s latest Police Family Finance Index (PFFI) survey has just closed with some worrying results.

Initial analysis ahead of the full report, which will be published in the Spring, shows that Police families are still under significant financial cost of living pressures with 68% reporting current financial concerns, up from 62% last year.

The survey - filled in by more than 13,500 police officers and staff - also highlights that many Police Families are not making the most of their tax free savings allowances and in the case of the LISA, missing out on thousands of pounds of guaranteed Government contributions which can be put towards getting on the property ladder or enhancing your retirement.

Annette Petchey, CEO of Police Friendly and Metfriendly, said: “It is likely that changes will be made to the LISA over the coming years, so it makes sense to make the most of the current window of opportunity to maximise your benefit of this Government contribution.

"Anyone aged between 18 and 40 is eligible to open a LISA and under current rules savings can be made up to the age of 50. We know from the survey that those that may benefit the most may not have the funds to maximise the opportunity which is why the LISA is designed to receive payments from other family members.

"For the absolute avoidance of doubt: the Government contribution is linked to tax years, if you don’t use it you will lose it."

The Police Family came together today to pay tribute at the funeral of PC Mat Parker, who died on duty on Wednesday, 19 November.

Steve Martin, Chair of Essex Police Federation, said: "Today we came together in great numbers to honour and say goodbye to Police Constable Mat Parker. The scale of attendance reflected the deep respect and affection held for Mat, not only within Essex Police but across the wider policing family and his friends.

"As Chair of Essex Police Federation, I was humbled to stand alongside his family, friends, and colleagues in paying tribute to a man who served with dedication, courage, and compassion. Mat’s commitment to protecting the public and supporting his fellow officers will never be forgotten.

"The strength shown by his loved ones today was remarkable, and the outpouring of support from across the service is a testament to the impact Mat had on so many lives.

"On behalf of the Federation, I extend our deepest condolences to Mat’s family and assure them that they remain firmly in our thoughts. We will continue to stand beside them, and beside all our officers, and offer support if needed.

"Rest in peace, Mat. Your service and sacrifice will always be remembered."

Home Office data reveal 1.63 million police working days were lost to sickness in the year to March, the highest level since records began.

A Police Federation spokesman said: “Policing in 2025 is a service that is breaking the people whose bravery and dedication protect communities across the country every day.

“Police officers are exposed to hundreds of traumatic incidents every year and every incident leaves its mark. With assaults on officers at record levels and the job getting more dangerous, these figures are not surprising.

“What is shocking is the record number of police officers – nearly 9,000 a year – who are resigning from policing before the job breaks them. More than 18 officers die by su***de every year.

“Policing needs to fix its leadership and create healthy workplaces where officers can thrive. Bad pay, worse morale and the challenge of working in conditions where every shift ends late and rest days are cancelled regularly are contributory factors to sickness absence.”
