The Essex Police Museum celebrated its 25th anniversary on Sunday, October 22.
A celebratory event was held today to mark our museum’s 25th anniversary. Deputy Chief Constable BJ Harrington and Mayor of Chelmsford Councillor Duncan Lumley welcomed guests and informed them about the history of the museum and praised the work of our museum curator, Hannah Wilson, and her team of dedicated volunteers.
During the day there were extra exhibits on display including those from the marine unit, air support, dog handling section and traffic police. A raffle held during the event raised £74 which will go towards the running of the museum.
The museum was first set up as a charity in 1992 by retired officer Sergeant Fred Feathers. It is run jointly between trustees, Essex Police and is partly funded by donations from the public.
