If you have recently suffered from an injury, either physical or stress related or been in Hospital, a stay at Flint House for some intensive physio or rest and relaxation may be beneficial to your recovery.

You will need to contact the Federation Office on 79 3418/3414 for an application form. This needs to be completed by you and your GP or Specialist recommending the treatment required, and returned to the Federation Office for confirmation of Welfare Fund membership. Copies of 3 payslips showing monthly Welfare Fund deductions will also be required covering a 12 month period from the date of application.

Flint House Rehabilitation Centre is in Goring on Thames, Oxfordshire. A stay at Flint House is of 12 days/11 nights duration. Under extreme circumstances family members can also attend with prior approval of the Administrator.

As a general rule, unless a new recruit or recent transferee, you will need to have contributed to the Welfare Fund for 12 months before you can benefit from this excellent facility.

Officers who opt to leave the police service and join SOCA will no longer be eligible for admission to the Centre. Officers who are seconded to SOCA will be eligible providing they continue to contribute to the Welfare Fund.

Retired officers will continue to be eligible to attend the Centre providing they paid into the Welfare Fund during their police service. However, the length of stay will be reduced from 12 days to 1 week.

If you have are on sick leave any stay at Flint House will continue to count as sick leave. However, if you have returned to work in ANY capacity for one week prior to your visit then this is not counted as sick leave.
