Facebook - update


Original map from last year (above)



It is 6 months since I assessed how many forces were making use of Facebook. In September 2010 there were 17 forces who didn't have a force page.  Now, there are 6 new forces to Facebook.  Of the last 11 forces without a facebook page, some are using Facebook for neighbourhoods, individual officers and even a police dog page.

New to Facebook
  • Lancashire
  • Greater Manchester
  • Cheshire
  • South Wales
  • Kent
  • City of London
Sussex Police promote their LGBT officer Pc Rachel Piggott
Dyfed Powys Police promote their police dog - Dafydd Paws
Merseyside Police promote Pc Lamb Banana

This leaves just 8 forces which are not getting involved in Facebook.
