BeaverFit awarded Scottish Police tender, in support of the CopStrong programme
Police Scotland’s commitment to operational fitness and injury prevention led to the development of the CopStrong programme – with the aim to enhance the officers fitness levels, reduce the risk of injury, and improve their performance on duty. However, the existing fitness facility was lacking the space and equipment required for effective group training and strength and conditioning sessions. “CopStrong is the Police Scotland functional strength and conditioning programme. It is designed to be used by officers and staff to obtain and maintain operational fitness in order to reduce the chance of injury and improve work performance.” – CopStrong Strength and Conditioning Programme Realising the limitations of their current set-up, Police Scotland took proactive measures to maximise their fitness space. Understanding the critical importance of their officer’s fitness and mental health, they awarded the tender to BeaverFit. BeaverFit designed, delivered and installed the 20ft Performance Locker, complete with modular, integrated internal storage, and external rigging, compatible with all BeaverFit attachments to amplify group training sessions. By expanding and reconfiguring their fitness space with the 20ft Performance Locker, they increased the functional area, allowing for broader group training opportunities. BeaverFit partnered with Physical Company, who supplied a full 360 solution to support the CopStrong programme effectively. Not only providing a designated fitness area that utilises an unused space, but that also incorporates training accessories and equipment with the goal of accelerating their learning curve in operational fitness. The optimisation of space and specialised equipment not only addressed the immediate requirements of the CopStrong programme but also laid the groundwork for a sustainable and evolving fitness infrastructure. By prioritising operational fitness and creating an environment conducive to comprehensive training, Police Scotland has significantly contributed to the health, safety, and effectiveness of their officers on duty.
