Representatives from the Queensland Police Service South Brisbane District recently hosted a joint morning tea with the Acacia Ridge Community Centre (now known as Belong: Community – People – Opportunity) along with their local support agencies and their volunteers.
Each May, Queensland marks Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month to raise community awareness about domestic and family violence and to send a clear message that violence of this sort will not be tolerated.
Many thanks to Senior Sergeant Ian Cameron, the Officer in Charge at the Acacia Ridge Police Station, Michelle Gadke (Client & Community Programs Manager) and Elizabeth Andrea (CALD Womens Program Coordinator) from Belong for coordinating the event.
Senior Sergeant Cameron acknowledged the wonderful yet unseen work being done behind the scenes by the Acacia Ridge & Districts Community Centre under the guidance of the Director, Trish Cattermole.
A special thanks to all who came together to share their stories.
