PC Robson will travel to London for the National Police Federation Bravery Awards in July.<\/p>\n<p>South Yorkshire Police Federation Chair Steve Kent said: \u201cIt was a fantastic, universally popular night \u2013 all the officers I spoke to absolutely loved it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut also, our Bravery Awards has led to millions of impressions on social media, counteracting all the negative press that&#8217;s out there. So as well as recognising our brave cops and giving them a night out, it also sends a message out to the public about some of the outstanding jobs our officers do.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a great night as always, and we&#8217;re already looking forward to next year.\u201d<\/p>\n<div data-animation=\"no-animation\" data-icons-animation=\"no-animation\" data-overlay=\"\" data-change-size=\"\" data-button-size=\"0.7\" style=\"font-size:0.7em!important;display:none;\" class=\"supsystic-social-sharing supsystic-social-sharing-package-flat supsystic-social-sharing-spacing supsystic-social-sharing-content supsystic-social-sharing-content-align-left\" data-text=\"\"><a data-networks=\"[]\" class=\"social-sharing-button sharer-flat sharer-flat-2 counter-standard without-counter googleplus\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Google+\" href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsypfcopperconnection.co.uk%2F%3Fp%3D416317\" data-main-href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url={url}\" data-nid=\"3\" data-name=\"\" data-pid=\"1\" data-post-id=\"416317\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sypfcopperconnection.co.uk\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-mailto=\"\"><i class=\"fa-ssbs fa-ssbs-fw fa-ssbs-google-plus\"><\/i><div class=\"counter-wrap standard\"><span class=\"counter\">0<\/span><\/div><\/a><a data-networks=\"[]\" class=\"social-sharing-button sharer-flat sharer-flat-2 counter-standard without-counter linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Linkedin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&title=Overall+Bravery+Winner+For+South+Yorkshire+Announced&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsypfcopperconnection.co.uk%2F%3Fp%3D416317\" data-main-href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&title={title}&url={url}\" data-nid=\"13\" data-name=\"\" data-pid=\"1\" data-post-id=\"416317\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sypfcopperconnection.co.uk\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-mailto=\"\"><i class=\"fa-ssbs fa-ssbs-fw fa-ssbs-linkedin\"><\/i><div class=\"counter-wrap standard\"><span class=\"counter\">0<\/span><\/div><\/a><a data-networks=\"[]\" class=\"social-sharing-button sharer-flat sharer-flat-2 counter-standard without-counter facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsypfcopperconnection.co.uk%2F%3Fp%3D416317\" data-main-href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u={url}\" data-nid=\"1\" data-name=\"\" data-pid=\"1\" data-post-id=\"416317\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sypfcopperconnection.co.uk\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-mailto=\"\"><i class=\"fa-ssbs fa-ssbs-fw fa-ssbs-facebook\"><\/i><div class=\"counter-wrap standard\"><span class=\"counter\">0<\/span><\/div><\/a><a data-networks=\"[]\" class=\"social-sharing-button sharer-flat sharer-flat-2 counter-standard without-counter twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsypfcopperconnection.co.uk%2F%3Fp%3D416317&text=Overall+Bravery+Winner+For+South+Yorkshire+Announced\" data-main-href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url={url}&text={title}\" data-nid=\"2\" data-name=\"\" data-pid=\"1\" data-post-id=\"416317\" data-url=\"https:\/\/sypfcopperconnection.co.uk\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-mailto=\"\"><i class=\"fa-ssbs fa-ssbs-fw fa-ssbs-twitter\"><\/i><div class=\"counter-wrap standard\"><span class=\"counter\">0<\/span><\/div><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fifth annual South Yorkshire Police Federation Bravery Awards, in association with the National Police Healthcare Scheme, were held on 21 May.
