All at the Police Federation of England and Wales are deeply saddened to hear of the death of Her Majesty The Queen.

As servants of the Crown, and on behalf of our membership, we would like to offer our sincere condolences to the Royal Family. Our thoughts are with them at this terribly sad time.

The flags at the Federation’s headquarters have been lowered to half-mast as a mark of respect.

May Her Majesty The Queen rest in peace.
