The Jersey Honorary Police Long Service and Good Conduct Medal is a decoration for members of the Honorary Police of the Bailiwick of Jersey. First instituted by Royal Warrant on 1 December 2014,[3] it is an official award that can be worn alongside other British medals and decorations.[2]
It is awarded for 12 years service, with a bar awarded for each subsequent period of 9 years. To qualify for the medal a member must have been:[3]
- In service on or after 1 January 2012; and
- Have completed the required years of service (12 years for the medal; additional periods of 9 years for a bar) which may be continuous service or an aggregate and in more than one Parish or more than one office; and
- His or her character and conduct must have been very good.
Produced by the Royal Mint, the rhodium plated cupro-nickel circular medal has the following design:[1]
- The obverse has the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with the wording ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA FID DEF.
- The reverse bears the coat of arms of Jersey superimposed on three crown-topped batons in front of an outline of the island, surrounded by the inscription HONORARY POLICE LONG SERVICE. JERSEY.
- The medal has a plain, straight suspender. The ribbon is red with narrow white, blue and yellow stripes at each edge.
