It is will sadness that I have to inform you of the death on Tuesday 7th March 2023 of ex D/Sgt 151 Harold "H" ROBINSON, 81yrs. Harold had been suffering from Dementia for several years and died peacefully in his sleep at Oaklands Care Home, Langwith. His carer for a number of years had been his former colleague Roger Bowler. Can I ask that any correspondence be sent to Mr Bowler.
'H' joined the Derbyshire Constabulary as a Cadet in 1957 and joined the regular force a few years later. He served at Matlock, Staveley, was promoted to Sergeant at Belper and later served on the CID at Chesterfield and on the regional Crime Squad. He finished his service as a D/Sgt at Bakewell retiring in 1988. Harold was a great character and raconteur and will be missed by all those who had the pleasure to work with him. His funeral will take place 9.50am on Thursday 30th March 2023 at Chesterfield Crematorium. Ian Louch (Vice Chair)
