ABOUT US
We were  formed in 1947 and we  celebrated our Diamond Jubilee in  2007.

It is known that the founder  member and first Secretary was in  1947, Thomas Joseph Kennedy, an ex Inspector  at Matlock and he continued in this office until 27th March, 1963. The Chairman  was W. B. Clews and both  worked diligently towards an efficient  branch.

On 6th  February 1956 the first  invitation was extended to the Chief Constable, W. E.  Pitts, to attend a  meeting on Sunday 18th March, which he did. He was invited to  become President  of the branch to which he agreed and the practice continues to  this day.

Our  present Chairman is David Ashley and the present Secretary  is Sean  Murphy.


The branch has over 1400 members and organises an active social calendar with events running throughout most of the year.
