Formally founded 10 April 1920; professional policing predecessors from 1853. Operated through German occupation of Channel Islands (1940-1945). Led investigation into Emiliano Sala disappearance (2019). Celebrated centenary in 2020.
Guernsey Police adopted The Herbert Protocol in 2018 in partnership with Dementia Friendly Guernsey to help when a vulnerable person goes missing. The police aim to prevent and tackle crime, addressing policing issues and being visible to ensure people, families, and businesses in Guernsey feel safe and secure. —
