22.01.2022 Thank you to the 'Herald Sun' for their recent article highlighting the generous offer from 'Bunnings Warehouse' where a portion of sales from their 'Festive Lighting Range' will go to Police Legacies nationally..... Locally this means that Victoria Police Legacy will receive the portion of Victorian sales from this range, for the next 5 weeks!! So, perhaps now is a good time to stock up! #festivelights #policelegacy #christmas #bunnings (photo courtesy of the Herald Sun)

14.01.2022 From Victoria Police:- The bushfires that impacted Victoria during the 2019/2020 bushfire season were unprecedented in scale and ferocity. We couldn’t be more proud of how Victoria Police officers displayed such remarkable strength and resilience, met with gratitude from the community, during a bushfire season the world will never forget. To highlight their contribution and efforts, we have created a dedicated website, Victorian Bushfires Remembered, an online exhibition crea...ted to mark the 12-month anniversary of the conclusion of the Victorian Government-declared State of Disaster. The online exhibition captures the extraordinary contribution police made in protecting the community and keeping Victorians safe. In honour of all the communities and our partnering emergency services, we encourage you to read the stories of help, loss and the recovery of Victoria. https://bit.ly/2LOv0EC See more
