Online
22nd Jul 2025 to 22nd Jul 2025
Policing Tech Forum Body-worn video briefings
with Devon and Cornwall Police and the National Police Chiefs Council
Session 4 – Tuesday 22nd July, 10am to 11:45am
Beyond Borders and shaping the future: from fragmentation to innovation.
As officers travel to support each other in times of increased demand, the inability to seamlessly share BWV footage between forces creates real operational and legal challenges – ultimately affecting our service to our communities. This final session explores barriers overcome but continued challenges, and also the future of BWV, and how we can harness more benefits in efficiency and productivity.

Body-worn video has transformed modern policing – once a niche capability, and a ‘nice to have’, it is now an essential part of everyday policing, capturing millions of hours of footage, supporting officer safety, building public trust and strengthening accountability.
But with success, comes complexity.
Forces are now grappling with the scale and cost of footage, the evolving ethical frameworks around its use, and the expectations of a public workforce increasingly aware of its power. At the same time, innovation continues, with live streaming, Al, and future capabilities, bringing new opportunities and challenges in equal measure.
Through the Lens: The Body-Worn Video Briefings is a webinar series designed to provide the UK and wider global policing community together to discuss these pressing issues, exploring the landscape of body-worn video – from operational pressures and frontline impact, to innovation and the future of connected policing.
This series of four webinars has been designed to not only engage with those who develop, deliver and oversee the use of body-worn video, but those on the frontline.That is those that will be using the technology daily and need to be aware of the full benefits and challenges that the systems can bring.
To maximise access, the sessions will be FREE to all members of recognised law enforcement agencies and the wider criminal justice sector in the UK and abroad.
Appropriate private sector organisations will be able to gain access for a small fee.
