25.01.2022 Such a tragic day. They will forever live on in our memories and in all the work that Blue Ribbon does.

25.01.2022 WE NEED YOU! Ladies & Gents of the community, we are seeking more volunteers for our great committee! It’s not a large commitment, you get to meet some great people and do some really beneficial work in our community. Let me know if you’re interested

25.01.2022 It doesn’t matter where this tragedy occurred, we all felt it. Bendigo Blue Ribbon appreciates the show of support shown here by the City of Greater Bendigo. There was also an outpouring of support at the Bendigo Police Station today with flowers and cards. The effects of this will be hard hitting and wide reaching. Please remember to seek professional support if you need it and look out for one another. Much love to our men and women in blue, their families and all emergency responders

24.01.2022 We hope you will join us for our online service

23.01.2022 This is why we do what we do - to remember their ultimate sacrifice and for the families left behind

22.01.2022 Ok, a little late but better late than never! Check out this update by Eaglehawk Garden Sculptures - what an amazing thing to do! Heartfelt thanks from Bendigo Blue Ribbon

20.01.2022 Watch as our President talks about the worthwhile projects we have been able to fund thanks to the generosity of the community. National Police Remembrance Day is this Sunday 29 September. The Bendigo service commences at 10am at the Bendigo Town Hall. Please join us as we remember police officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty

18.01.2022 On behalf of the Bendigo East Neighbourhood Watch Committee, President Ken Westhead, Secretary Jeanette Westhead and Treasurer Viv Chamberlin have generously donated $3,750 to the Bendigo Blue Ribbon Foundation, presenting the cheque on Wednesday at the Bendigo Police Station. Part of their donation, which has been raised over the past 30 years by the Bendigo East NHW and Bendigo East Community, will be used to purchase Blue Ribbon Buff Dog teddies to be given to children inv...olved with the Bendigo Family Violence Investigation Unit and Central Victoria Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team. Together with Ken, Jeanette and Viv, members of the Bendigo Blue Ribbon Committee Ailsa Elliott, Kate Blyth and A/Insp Craig Gaffee were joined with Det S/Sgt John Dalton from the CV SOCIT and Det S/Sgt Andrea Turner from the Bendigo Family Violence Investigation Unit for the presentation of the cheque.

16.01.2022 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a much loved committee member - JUNE KILLIAN. June was with the Bendigo Blue Ribbon Foundation for over 10 years and was a staunch supporter of our little committee! June was an avid collector of prize donations and I don’t think anyone could say no to her!! June was passionate, a straight talker and a beautiful soul. June had a devilish smile and a contagious laugh. The whole committee send our love and thoughts to June’s family and friends, especially our dear Ailsa who will miss her partner in crime terribly.

15.01.2022 Did you know you can purchase a Constable T Bear and all the profit will go to the Bendigo branch. This keeps your donation local. Same with a monetary donation - which, by the way, is tax deductible!! Follow the link today to make a life saving donation to the local area

14.01.2022 Couldn’t have said it better. Merry Christmas to you and yours

14.01.2022 We invite all members of the public to share a minutes silence tonight on the one week anniversary of the tragedy that took four police officers. Rest In Peace Lynette, Glen, Kevin and Josh. You will always be remembered.

09.01.2022 Hello BRF supporters. Doesn’t life look a little bit different these days! We hope you are all looking after yourself and your loved ones. We are taking a little hiatus during this time, as is expected of us by the government. We will be back with a vengeance as soon as we can and planning the next Inside Story! In the meantime we leave you with this lovely photo of dedicated committee member of 12yrs, Kate Blyth, who last month resigned from the committee to concentrate on the many other things that demand her time! Kate was always enthusiastic and helpful and held the Secretary role for longer than any of us can remember! Thanks for all your hard work Kate.

04.01.2022 I do remember when they brought the person that killed Morrie Moore into the watchhouse all the other prisoners cheered and clapped and treated him like he wa...s something special.
