Our 2030 vision and three-year plan
Our 2030 vision for policing is of an organisation focused on safer communities, less crime, supported victims, and a thriving workforce.
Work to deliver our vision will be planned and organised over two three-year planning periods:
- April 2024 to March 2027 (our first three-year plan)
- April 2027 to March 2030 (our second three-year plan)
We will make significant changes to our organisation across the following areas:
- Building frontline capacity
- Community policing
- Supported victims
- Workforce modernisation
- Public contact
- Estates
- Science, innovation, and technology
Our 2024-27 plan outlines more than 130 milestones Police Scotland aims to achieve by March 2027.
Our vision and values set the guiding principles and ambitions for policing and our business plan details the steps we are taking to deliver for our communities and our workforce, relentlessly prioritising frontline services.
Our plan is a positive and ambitious vision and plan for policing and, while we outline milestones taking us to 2027, our approach will be flexible and subject to funding.
We are developing a budget proposal for 2025-26 to support the second year of the business plan.
