Kevin - Tour Guide in Sheffield

Hello, my name is Kevin. I'm a retired police sergeant, I also have experience working within the criminal justice system at the Sheffield Combined and Family Courts.. As a police officer I spent a number of years 'pounding the beat' in Sheffield city centre. I also worked as a shift and custody sergeant. I grew to be fascinated with Sheffield's history of people and places .especially the more 'dark' side of that history. I have organised walking tours for my colleagues at the courts and now I have fully retired I have designed this tour. I'm a born and bred 'Sheffielder', a lover of Guinness and a passionate Sheffield Wednesday supporter. So, come and join me on the beat, lets walk and talk together as we open up some of Sheffield's forgotten past. Looking forward to meeting you.

Law and order wouldn't be my normal focus on a tour, but it's always good to do something different and Kevin's first-hand knowledge and interest made this an interesting and unusual tour.

Kevin is very friendly, informative and approachable. The tour is mainly about crime and the gang wars but with other interesting information given along the way. It's a leisurely walk not rushed and very worth while. I would definitely recommend!

It was easy to follow all the information shared by Kevin during the tour, some of which included some curiosities about the criminal history of Sheffield apart from the essential tourist attractions!

Response from Kevin
