Every year since then former employees of Portsmouth City Police have held a reunion of some kind on the anniversary of the amalgamation, March 31.
This year, on Friday, March 31, to mark the anniversary, a reunion lunch will be held at the Marriott Hotel, North Harbour, Portsmouth.

And to mark the special occasion a commemorative medallion will be struck and presented to everyone attending the lunch.
Tony Thompson, of Titchfield Common, said: ‘Portsmouth City Police was a proud and well-regarded force.
‘Of all the amalgamated police forces in the UK, Portsmouth is one of the very few that has consistently held annual reunions.’
