Hello, I'm Rebecca Kirley, a PhD student. I’m working on a project for my dissertation which explores the idea of organisational learning from public complaints and civil claims in police forces. This is in light of the recent national changes to the complaints system to make it more learning-oriented, and also because there's been little research into what it means to learn from these kinds of processes, or whether and how such learning happens.

If you would be willing to share your professional perspectives and experiences with me it would be a massive help! …
