The family of branches, Gateshead, Northumbria, South Shields, Sunderland & Tynemouth

Welcome to the home of Northumbria NARPO on-line

 
 
 

 

Northumbria NARPO membership has a long history found in the City, Borough, County and River police officers of the north east of England. Those original forces were amalgamated over the years to comprise what is currently known as Northumbria Police. The Northumbria NARPO Branches are proud to have amongst their number some retired officers who can trace their service back to one of those constituent forces.














Seeking a kidney donor

November 2022 update

One of our members, Trevor Fordy, is still reaching out for assistance. His stepson, 23-year-old Adam Mould had a kidney transplant when he was 15 years old and now the transplant is failing and he is in urgent need of finding another donor. Adam is now on kidney dialysis three times per week, an essential medical intervention to keep him alive. 

Would you like to be considered as a potential kidney donor?

Please email:

The Kidney Transplant

Co-ordinator

Ms. Julie Wardle

Mark up the email for Julie's attention.
