National Chaplain, Canon David Wilbraham MBE, joined with the Police Federation National Chair, John Apter to observe the national 1 minute Silence. On Saturday 17th April HRH Prince Philip was laid to rest and the country fell silent at 1500, Chaplains across the country led their Forces in commemoration on Friday and David & John kept the silence to Police Fed HQ on the Saturday.

David Wilbraham, Adrian Gatrill and Simon Evans attended the Police Federation Conference in Bournemouth this week.  This was a really useful networking event and it was encouraging that chaplaincy is recognised by the Police Federation as making a difference.  One Federation Delegate came up to the stall and said "Chaplains are great, you are doing a fantastic job, all over the place. Thank you!"
