Camilla&#8217;s PhD (2017) was on the symbolic power of the police uniform, but when COVID hit, her research turned more towards how police officers were suffering from a lack of personal protective equipment on the front-lines. She interviewed officers about their experiences of policing the pandemic and has published widely in international journals discussing the various well-being implications of being a police officer during periods of crises. She also covers topics of morale, health and safety, and recruitment and retention, particularly with a gendered angle. Her current research project is undertaking pilot data with female-identifying officers, who need to wear a mandatory uniform during their day-to-day activities. What happens when the uniform doesn\u2019t fit? Poorly fitting uniform has repercussions on officer performance, health and safety, and psycho-social wellbeing. This project will work directly with former and serving UK police officers who do not fit the heteronormative masculine physique to highlight problems within the design of the uniform.\u00a0 Working collaboratively with officers, academics, and designers, the aim of the research is to produce a practical, comfortable, and inclusive conceptual design for all front-line police officers in varying active roles. This is key in supporting a police service that aims to recruit 20,000 new front-line officers by 2025, with diversity and inclusivity a core strategy.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/law\/people\/esmorie-miller\">Dr Esmorie Miller, Lecturer in Criminology<\/a><\/p>\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpa-warning wpa-image-missing-alt  wp-image-197 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/fhasshealthhub\/files\/2024\/04\/4.-esmorie-miller.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"176\" height=\"176\" data-warning=\"Missing alt text\" \/><\/div>\r\n<p>Dr Esmorie Miller is a Criminology Lecturer at Lancaster University Law School, researching Race, Youth, Gender and exclusion, in Britain and Canada.
