    dignity of the Commission of Peace
  • Promote, improve, extend, elevate and deal with the education and general
    knowledge of members in every possible manner

  • Do all things that may promote the objects of the Federation as a non-political, non-sectarian and non-profit-making organisation

We welcome enquiries from Justices of the Peace who would like to become members of our Federation.
