Constable Sharynne Grant’s 40 years of distinguished service with South Australia Police (SAPOL) has been recognised in the 2016 Australia Day awards with an Australian Police Medal (APM).
Constable Sharynne Grant with Commissioner Grant Stevens at Government House.
Constable Grant joined SAPOL in 1975 and worked in a range of operational areas before becoming
a Victim Contact Officer in 1994.
For the past 20 years she has been committed to providing outstanding services to victims of crime and persons affected by trauma. Constable Grant brings to the role a passion for service to victims and an empathy for them that goes beyond mere words of comfort.
She has created special bonds, particularly with vulnerable victims, and made herself available, at work and in her own time, providing practical and emotional support to families and victims of crime.
Constable Grant’s knowledge of procedures, processes, and services to victims and her commitment to assisting has been invaluable to investigators.
“I’m thrilled and honoured to receive the APM,” Constable Grant said.
“I’ve been passionate about assisting victims throughout my whole career, so this is the greatest reward I could ever achieve for my work.
“Many of the victims I have helped over the years have contacted me to share their kind words and excitement about my award recognition, which makes it even more special.”
SAPOL’s longest ever serving female officer, Constable Grant has previously been nominated for the South Australia Police Officer of the Year award and been awarded life membership by Victim Support Services.

ACTING Premier John Rau and Police Commissioner Grant Stevens have paid tribute to South Australia’s longest serving female officer after she died in the city on Tuesday night.
Constable Sharynne Grant’s death was not considered suspicious.
Mr Rau described Constable Grant as a “highly-respected and long-serving member of our police force”.
“As South Australia’s longest ever serving female officer, she was a guiding light for many of her colleagues,” he said.

“Constable Grant excelled in her career, and particularly so in her service as a Victim Contact Officer.
“(Her) passion for her role and empathy has provided tremendous support to victims and their families.
“Our condolences are with (Constable Grant’s) family, friends and colleagues at this difficult time.”
Mr Stevens described Constable Grant’s death as “tragic”.
“On behalf of all members of the South Australia Police, I extend our condolences to Sharynne’s family, friends and colleagues,” he said.
“On a personal note, I am deeply saddened by her death.
“It would be inappropriate for me to further discuss the circumstances of this matter, but in keeping with usual practice a report will be prepared for the State Coroner.”
Constable Grant joined SA Police in 1975 and remained in the force until she died.
Her service to the community and support for victims of crime and those affected by trauma was recognised on Australia Day this year when she was awarded an Australian Police Medal.
In November last year, Constable Grant told ABC News it was “very emotional” being the longest serving female officer.
She said it was vital that women have a strong presence in the police force.
“I think it’s very important, they do a wonderful job,” she told the ABC.
“We’ve got a female deputy commissioner, she’s fantastic, through the ranks, and they just do wonderful work, really wonderful work and equal work with the men.
“It’s very emotional for me, being the longest serving and probably the oldest, it’s very emotional.”
Police Association of SA president Mark Carroll also passed on his condolences.
“Sharynne was a deeply respected member of the police community, loved my many and her passing is a terrible tragedy,” he said.
Snapshots of a century of women in police in South Australia
Policewomen at 100 anniversary march Posted 1 Dec 2015, 1:47pm Sharynee Grant (far right) with other officers wearing different South Australian police uniforms from over the years at the march in Adelaide.
Hundreds of female police officers, past and present, have marched through Adelaide’s CBD to mark 100 years of women in the police force.
South Australia appointed its first female officers as equals with their male counterparts, on December 1, 1915.
At the time, a large percentage of Adelaide’s men were overseas fighting in World War I and calls were made to employ female officers.
South Australia’s longest serving female police officer Constable Sharynne Grant has seen many changes over the years.
Ms Grant has been a police officer for almost 41 years and said she was drawn to the force after meeting “a wonderful female police officer”.
“I joined in 1975, I graduated that year, and I joined because of a wonderful female police officer I’d met in 1961,” Ms Grant said.
“Lots of changes in uniform, and lots of changes in women just doing everything.
“I was the second group of females on patrols, on mixed patrols, and there are a lot more females now, there’s 1,264.”
She said it is vital that there is a strong female presence in the police force.
“I think it’s very important, they do a wonderful job,” she said.
“We’ve got a female deputy commissioner, she’s fantastic, through the ranks, and they just do wonderful work, really wonderful work and equal work with the men.
“It’s very emotional for me, being the longest serving and probably the oldest, it’s very emotional.”
South Australia Police will recognise a significant milestone in history on Tuesday (1 Dec) with a street parade in Adelaide’s CBD celebrating a century of women in policing.
On December 1, 1915 South Australia Police appointed its first female officers as equals with their male counterparts. They were the first women police officers commissioned in the then British Empire and among the first in the world.
Over the next week, in recognition of 100 years of women in policing, we are publishing some short videos memories from police women past and present.
Today we feature Constable Sharynne Grant (SAPOL 1975-current), who shows how the ‘history’ of SAPOL is still unfolding today. Other snapshots can be seen on the SAPOL Facebook page, or YouTube account.
These women will be among those attending the parade, which will also feature the Band of the South Australia Police, mounted police, present and retired officers, PSOs, ASOs, historic uniforms and vehicles.
Tuesday’s street parade – which starts outside Police Headquarters, 100 Angas Street at 10am – will move around Victoria Square, travel down King William St and end at Government House about 11am.
We hope to see you there!
Above this – messages only refer to the ‘street parade’ of 1 December 2015.
Mick SchooleyFor those who know the woman and not just the copper, this I feel is a way of not just recognition of her service to society, but the warm and loving person she will always be ❤
Dianne CapperThat was my uniform too in 1978 and yes it was attractive but not practical, handbag and all. I went on early patrol work with this lady after first graduating. As third person in the car of course as women never worked on their own, always with a male officer.
Phil MainI had the privilege of knowing Sharynne for nearly 40 years. I worked with her closely at Adelaide CIB and marvelled at her skills in dealing with victims. I shared many great moment in court with her and reminiscing over our past policing career. I truly enjoyed this woman’s company. For those who know her real story she will serve as a testament of true endurance and resilience.
I will deeply miss that beaming smile.
Bette GrantWe met Sharon on a very recent overseas and quickly became friends. Our condolences to Sharynnes family, colleagues and friends. Wonderful caring lady

Published in: The Examiner

BEDELPH Amy Passed away October 7, 2016.
Esteemed and respected member of the Retired Police Association.
Born Amy Franklin on 5 May 1924 at Lilydale, one of 19 children, Amy is the eldest of the four daughters still living.
After Lilydale School, Amy joined the Women’s Land Army at 17, working in a Scottsdale market garden and later in a factory. The AWLA was established on 27 July 1942 as a national voluntary organisation to replace male farm workers who had either enlisted or were working in other essential war work such as munitions.
Later, Amy joined the Salvation Army, attending a Melbourne training college before her first posting to Kent Town, South Australia, followed by Jamestown and then on to Adelaide where she had her own church.
Back in Melbourne, Amy caught up with colleague Arthur Clee, whom she married, and they went on to Hamilton in north-western Victoria as Army officers.
Returning to Tasmania, Amy worked as an Officer at Smithton in the early 1950s and later as a bookbinder for The Mercury.
Initially appointed special constable on 1 April 1963, on 18 March 1966 she was appointed constable 570 (later 384). Arthur was then a constable and superintendent of the Hobart Police Boys Club. Why the police? Well, Arthur was naturally a big influence, but Amy also recalls Commissioner Delderfield’s words – “You may as well join too; you will enjoy it.” So she did. Amy was, I believe, the first married woman to be appointed, and the first whose husband was also a serving policeman. At that time, the role was largely a social welfare one, and it was what most women of that time expected and indeed enjoyed.
Amy assisted Arthur at Hobart Police Boys Club, and went on to be supervisor of the newly-formed Police Girls Club, which had been established in 1955, using the old Sackville Street garage premises as a base. Both clubs were amalgamated in 1964.
In June 1965, the then Commissioner and his wife, as patrons, expressed their appreciation to the Clees for ” …the devoted and dedicated service you have as husband and wife, apart from your both being members of the Tasmania Police Force, contributed to the standards achieved, the progress made, and the enthusiasm of the members of both Clubs.”
Commended, following the 1967 bushfire disaster, Amy transferred to Glenorchy on 19 May 1969. As the only policewoman at the station, she was effectively O.I.C. At this time, there were 14 other policewomen employed within Tasmania Police.
Amy resigned on 22 December 1972 and later married policeman Ivan Bedelph.
Today, Amy is a sprightly 91 years of age and a resident of “The Manor”, a lovely residential facility in Guy Street, Kings Meadows. Amy simply takes things as they come. Her “life story” hangs framed upon her wall, together with her badge and insignia. Amy regards it with no regrets and a large amount of pride.
LILYDALE – Lieut. Amy Franklin, of the Salvation Army, James Town, South Australia, is spending furlough with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. Franklin, Lilydale.
Posting at discharge: 36 Australian Infantry Battalion
Morris was one of five Crossinghams that were born in Macksville, NSW that signed up for WW2 at different locations.
His brother, Arthur Reginald, NX18228, was killed in action in Egypt on 02/05/1941 aged 20, buried at the Tubruk War Cemetery, Lybia.
I only put this up because I was/am interested in the decoration that Morris is wearing on his right side and did some looking. Perhaps it could be his brothers war service medal.
According to the Australian War Memorial records, Arthur Crossingham, father of Morris and Arthur Reginald, and 2 other sons all served in WW2.
Thank you all for your service gentlemen.
National Archives have NOT scanned this man’s War documents at this time. (For information), A close family member can make a request to the Australian War Memorial/National Archives to have his records opened and made available to the public if they wish.

I have lost one of the most important people in my life. Nothing will ever come close to you, as my big brother. You shaped who I am and I love that, cherish that, miss that. You were an amazing adventurer, story teller and brother.
You looked Forward to having kids and cousins to my kids. You achieved that, but sadly, not for long enough. You had so much love in your heart for your family.
It’s better to burn out, than to fade away.
Love you Brother.
