The Lincolnshire Police force has established a strong partnership with John Thirkettle, the mental health coordinator for Humberside Police. Thirkettle, who was recently acknowledged with an MBE for his substantial contributions to initiatives related to mental health, has been a crucial figure in creating and evolving the Right Care Right Person (RCRP) programme. This initiative has contributed significantly to enhancements in mental health response throughout the region. This joint initiative is focused on ensuring that individuals experiencing a crisis receive adequate care and assistance, providing benefits to communities throughout Lincolnshire.
