Like most organisations, South Yorkshire Police is transforming the way we deliver our services and run the organisation to meet ever more demanding challenges. We have a Medium-Term Resource Strategy underpinned by a draft recovery plan to help achieve our mission. The Finance department is very much at the centre of delivering this strategy working collaboratively with all senior leaders across the organisation and our external partners.
