It is with sadness that I report the death of John PRITCHARD 76yrs who was the Retired Special Commandant. He passed away at his home address after a short illness yesterday the 1st December 2025. John was a member of NARPO.

He leaves his wife Barbara, son Neil and daughter Andrea. I have yet to speak with family and will update as soon as I am able. John was a member of the Nottinghamshire Police Male Voice choir and also the Bestwood Male Voice Choir. It is known that he was singing with the choir as recently as last weekend.

When I have spoken with family I will update members with more detail and any funeral arrangements.

Our thoughts and condolences are extended to the family at this very sad time.
