The award recognises his work promoting inclusion and diversity, honouring his efforts to support colleagues and build stronger community relationships.
PC Rodrigues said the recognition reflected the work of his wider team. 'This recognition is not about one individual,' he said. 'It reflects the commitment, passion and dedication of WEPA's members, executive team, allies and supporters, who work tirelessly to promote inclusion, support colleagues and strengthen relationships with the communities we serve.'
Among the initiatives PC Rodrigues highlighted was WEPA Day, which he described as having 'created a platform for underrepresented voices to be heard, celebrated diversity and encouraged greater understanding across policing and our communities'.
The NBPA conference, held under the theme 'Holding the Line: Ethical Leadership in an Age of Division', brought together policing professionals from across the country to discuss equality, diversity, inclusion and ethical leadership.
Senior officers have praised the impact of PC Rodrigues' work, describing the award as a deserved recognition of his dedication to fairness, inclusion and justice in policing.
