The board was set up in line with a recommendation in the review of the culture and standards in the Metropolitan Police by Baroness Casey.
The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has said representatives from communities with “the lowest levels of trust in the Met” will help him scrutinise the force.
Sadiq Khan has said the board’s members have “an extraordinary range of professional skills and lived experience they can draw on to make a positive difference”. Baroness Casey’s review, ordered in the wake of Sarah Everard’s murder, found the Met is institutionally racist, misogynist and homophobic and laid bare a slew of troubling incidents.
Deputy mayor for policing and crime Sophie Linden and deputy mayor for communities and social justice Dr Debbie Weekes-Bernard will also sit on the board alongside London’s independent victims’ commissioner Claire Waxman OBE and London Councils’ executive member for community safety and violence against women and girls councillor Jas Athwal.
