Celebrate a charming piece of modern policing history with these Kent Hop Cop Lapel Pin Badges, originally produced for Kent Police charity and community fundraising in the late 1990s to early–mid 2000s. The friendly Hop Cop character was created to support public‑facing campaigns, school visits, and local engagement, offering a light‑hearted mascot that helped the force connect with families and younger audiences.
These enamel‑style pins were issued in small runs rather than mass‑produced, making surviving examples increasingly collectible. Their crisp detailing, bright colours and unmistakable Hop Cop design make them ideal for police memorabilia collectors, Kent enthusiasts, or anyone with a connection to the county’s policing heritage.
Whether displayed in a collection, added to a jacket, or gifted to someone with roots in Kent, these Kent Police Hop Cop badges offer a nostalgic, characterful reminder of community policing during the late‑90s/early‑2000s era.
