Police chief meets with churchmen

Mr Baggott took up his post as the third leader of NI’s rebranded police force in September.

He is also the president of the Christian Police Association (CPA).

Writing on the CPA website the chief constable has said his faith is much more than “simply a comforting feeling or a set of helpful principles.”

“I believe in a God who cares deeply for communities, people and police officers and whose love is shown through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ,” he continued.

“I have found God to be both personal and practical, helping me through the good and the difficult times.”

Mr Baggott has called his role as the head of the Police Service of Northern Ireland his “greatest professional privilege”.
