David Dickason continues as chairman. David is a retired Police Officer, with over twenty years' experience (since 1986), mostly in the British Transport Police in London. He reached the rank of Chief Inspector, and served periods as temporary Superintendent. From 2000 – 2006 David served as Head of the British Transport Police Crime reduction and Crime & Disorder Partnership Unit, London Underground and Docklands light railway. This work included - dealing with offenders and various crime types; forging working relationships with external organisations and local Authorities; and dealing with the safety and security of staff and reducing the opportunity for acts of terrorism. He also worked with Courts, the Crown Prosecution Service and the Home Office in preparing applications and representing the police as an advisor. 

From 2006 – 2010 he served as Sector Commander – Central London. The main focus of this role was to manage, develop and co-ordinate all operational activities within the sector working closely with the intelligence unit. It also included the management and deployment of officers and police staff. David was the senior officer of two operational police stations, along with associated responsibilities including health and safety. Again, this post involved development and co-ordination of services, liaising with other agencies, ensuring performance targets were met, and day-to-day budgetary management.

He was trained in major incident management, and was trained and qualified to Silver level event commander. David was very experienced in conducting investigations and crime scene management. We are confident that his expertise in legal matters will be useful to the Society; in liaising with legal bodies where necessary; and generally advising on security measures. He has a varied collection of parrots at home.
