At 30 Faye decided that she needed to return to the UK to support her family. Faye decided to join West Midlands Police. She went to Ryton and was posted to Handsworth where Faye worked in the community. She was eventually selected to work within offender management and the restorative justice team. The job meant she was present when criminals met their victim or the victim’s family. The process gives the victim the opportunity to ask the suspect why they were targeted.

After 17 years in West Midlands Police Faye decided that she would “bite the bullet” and leave the police. She had become disenchanted with the lack of support and direction by the senior management and the police federation over the pension issues and working conditions.

To compound issues Faye was disheartened by the resignation process. She completed the process online and never saw a manager or had any feedback. She feels let down by her former managers and would welcome a meeting with a member of the senior team at west midlands police.

Faye now runs a successful photography company and is a travel advisor & agent She is also a member of www.ex-jobservices.com
