Summer magazine out now

4 August 2026

The Summer 2026 edition of Fed News, the magazine of Suffolk Police Federation, is available now.

This issue brings you the latest updates from branch officials, representatives and members, featuring reflections, opinions, achievements and key milestones from across the Federation.

Leading this edition is Acting Detective Sergeant Scott Swallow, who appears on the cover following his attendance at the 31st National Police Bravery Awards. Scott shares his experience of the prestigious event after being named Suffolk Constabulary's nominee earlier this year.

We also celebrate the remarkable career of recently retired PC Janet Humphrey, who reflects on 40 years of award-winning service with the Force. In an exclusive interview, Chief Constable Rachel Kearton discusses taking part in the Police Unity Tour ahead of her own retirement.

Elsewhere in the magazine, dedicated Federation representative Claire Yates offers an insight into her role, what motivates her, and her commitment to supporting policing colleagues. Plus, we look back on the 12-month tour of 'Feels on Wheels', the wellbeing van.

The issue also includes the branch's response to some of the profession's most significant recent developments, including rising officer mental health absences and changes to police pensions. 

All this and more, in the latest issue of Fed News, keeping you connected with your Federation. Read online for free today.
