Police recognised in HM The King's first Birthday Honours List

People of all ranks and several roles have been awarded honours.

Chair of the National Police Chiefs’ Council, Gavin Stephens, said:

“I would like to express my heartfelt congratulations to all members of our policing family who have been recognised in the King’s Birthday Honours list today.

“Each and every one of them has contributed significantly to both their communities and to the world of policing.  Policing is a vocation that requires great resilience and resolve to keep our communities safe, and those receiving awards set an example for us all.

“I’m delighted that their achievements, stories and commitment to going above and beyond can be showcased through the honours which are very well-deserved.”
