FOI 04032024-1 – South Atlantic Medal Engraving

Request

It is reported that Chief Constable Adderley wore a South Atlantic Medal. What is the name struck into the rim of the medal?

Response

The Office of the Northamptonshire Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner has received information from a third party that the name engraved on the medal is that of Mr Adderley’s brother. The OPFCC has no personal direct knowledge as no member of staff has ever seen the medal and we have not done so following the referral of this matter to the IOPC, as this is being conducted as an independent investigation by them.
