Morningside Police station had a very special afternoon tea for retired Volunteer in Police (VIP) Merv Ellis. Merv was the station’s VIP for 15 years until a few years ago.
Merv assisted Police to address customer service, community safety, crime safety and crime prevention needs in the community.
In April Merv suffered a serious illness and officers from the station responded and needed to break down the door to rescue him.
Merv was known to most of the officers at the station for his tireless efforts. One of the officers who attended had only recently transferred to the station.
Today Merv got to meet Sergeant Simone Beckett.
