About

About this platform

Police Brutality UK is an independent, public-interest project. We document UK police misconduct, provide plain-English guidance on the complaints process, and support a community of those affected.

We are not a law firm. We don't give legal advice. We collaborate with solicitors, advocates, journalists and watchdog bodies to amplify accountability and bring stories into the public record.

Our principles

  • Privacy first — sensitive data is locked down, evidence is private by default.
  • Accuracy over speed — every story is reviewed before publication.
  • Independent — not affiliated with any police force, party, or commercial firm.
  • Survivor-led — people affected by police conduct shape what we do.
