⚽🚓🚒 FOOTBALL, FRIENDSHIP & TEAMWORK

Yesterday, the Royal Gibraltar Police football team welcomed a visiting Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue team to Europa Point Sports Complex for a friendly 11-a-side fixture.

Despite a spirited performance and tremendous effort from everyone involved, the visitors came away with a 6–2 victory.

Goals for the RGP side came from PC Mark Edzes, who scored an impressive 30-yard strike, and Colin Finlayson of the Gibraltar Defence Police (GDP).

👏 A special mention to PC Mark Edzes for organising the fixture and bringing both teams together for an enjoyable afternoon of football.

Our thanks go to Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue for a great game and to the Gibraltar Defence Police for their support and contribution of three officers to the team.

The Gibraltar Police Federation was proud to sponsor and fund the team’s playing kit, supplied by Gibraltar Sports & Leisure, with the Federation logo proudly displayed on the shirts.

Supporting sporting initiatives such as this is an important part of encouraging teamwork, camaraderie and wellbeing among our officers, while strengthening relationships with colleagues from other emergency services.

Events like these are about much more than the final score. They bring people together, build friendships and reflect the spirit of teamwork that exists across our services.

👏 Well played to everyone involved, and congratulations to Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue on their victory!

💛 World Su***de Prevention Day

Yesterday marked World Su***de Prevention Day, but the message shouldn’t be limited to just one day.

Policing can place unique pressures on officers and their families, and sometimes the hardest thing can be simply saying, “I’m struggling.”

The Gibraltar Police Federation wants our members to know that support is available and that asking for help is a sign of strength.

Look out for each other. Check in on a colleague. Start the conversation.

Sometimes a simple “Are you OK?” can make a real difference.

💛 You don’t have to face things alone.

🇬🇮 HAPPY NATIONAL DAY 🇬🇮

Today, as Gibraltar comes together to celebrate National Day, the Gibraltar Police Federation would like to wish our members, their families and the whole Gibraltar community a very happy National Day.

While many of us will be enjoying today’s celebrations, others will be working throughout the day to keep Gibraltar safe and our essential services running.

We would particularly like to recognise our RGP colleagues on duty today, together with our fellow emergency services, healthcare workers and all those across Gibraltar’s public and essential services who will be working while the rest of us celebrate.

To everyone on duty today, thank you, stay safe and hopefully you get the opportunity to enjoy a little of the National Day atmosphere along the way.

And to everyone celebrating with family and friends, have a fantastic day.

Happy National Day, Gibraltar! 🇬🇮

TO THOSE WORKING WHILE GIBRALTAR RESTS 👮‍♀️👮‍♂️

For many people, the weekend means switching off from work.

Policing doesn’t.

Across Gibraltar, officers will continue responding to calls, investigating crime, safeguarding vulnerable people, policing our roads and being there when members of our community need help.

Some will be working nights. Others will be on call. Some will miss time with family and friends simply because the job requires it.

Most of that work will never appear on social media or make the news.

But it matters.

To all our members working this weekend, thank you, stay safe and look after each other.

🔵 WORLD DAY AGAINST TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS

Today we join organisations around the world in marking World Day Against Trafficking in Persons.

Human trafficking is a serious form of organised crime that exploits vulnerable people for profit. Tackling it requires effective policing, intelligence sharing and cooperation across borders.

As police officers, our members can find themselves dealing with people at their most vulnerable, sometimes in circumstances where exploitation may not immediately be obvious.

The Gibraltar Police Federation recognises the work of police officers and partner agencies, both here in Gibraltar and internationally, who work to identify victims, disrupt those responsible and protect vulnerable people.

As members of EuroCOP⁠, we also recognise the importance of police organisations working together across Europe to confront organised and cross-border crime.

Supporting Those Who Serve.

The Gibraltar Police Federation stands firmly with the five RGP officers assaulted while responding to this incident.

Police officers attend difficult and often unpredictable situations every day to protect the public. Being punched, scratched or spat at should never be accepted as simply part of the job.

We wish all five of our colleagues a speedy recovery and thank them, and the officers alongside them, for their professionalism in dealing with what was clearly a challenging incident.

Assaults on police officers are unacceptable. Those who protect our community deserve to be protected too.

Two individuals charged following a domestic-related incident and assaults on
RGP officers.

22-year-old Ben Brown, of MacFarlane House, together with a 16-year-old female, bave been charged with a number of offences following an incident that occurred at a residential property in the early hours on Thursday 23rd July 2026.

Response Team officers were dispatched to a report of a domestic related incident, and upon arrival heard screaming and shouting from within the residence in question.

Officers found Brown and the female within and displaying minor injuries, and whilst attempting to separate the parties and obtain accounts, Brown was arrested of suspicion of Common Assault. Both individuals then lashed out violently towards the officers, resisting arrest and punching, scratching and spitting at several officers.

They were eventually restrained and conveyed to New Mole House.

A total of 5 officers assaulted during this incident sustained facial injuries that did not require hospitalisation.

Both defendants were later charged as follows:

BROWN
- 1 count of Resisting / Obstructing Police
- 2 counts of Assault on Police

The female juvenile was charged with:
- 1 count of Resisting / Obstructing Police
- 4 counts of Assault on Police

Upon their first appearance before the Magistrates’ Court, BROWN was remanded in custody at HM Prison Windmill Hill, with the female juvenile granted bail with conditions, which included a curfew

The Gibraltar Police Federation stands in solidarity with our colleagues in Malta following the shocking incident in Ta’ Ġiorni, San Ġwann.

Our thoughts are with the injured officers, their families and all those responding to this difficult and dangerous incident.

No police officer should face violence simply for carrying out their duty to protect the public.

We wish the injured officers a full and speedy recovery and stand united with our Maltese colleagues. 🇬🇮🤝🇲🇹

The Gibraltar Police Federation welcomes yesterday’s convictions following the serious assault on one of our colleagues.

Our thoughts remain with the officer who was simply trying to assist another person whilst off duty and was subjected to a brutal and completely unacceptable attack.

No police officer should ever become the target of violence for doing what they instinctively do, helping others. Assaults on police officers, whether on or off duty, will never be tolerated.

We hope today’s outcome brings some measure of justice for our colleague and sends a clear message that those who attack police officers will be held accountable.

We would also like to acknowledge the professionalism of the Response Team officers, detectives and all those involved whose dedication ensured those responsible were brought before the courts.

The Gibraltar Police Federation stands with all our officers.
