It is a day to remember & honour our fallen officers whose lives were tragically cut short while performing their duties as a Police Officer.
Member for Manly James Griffin MP acknowledged the sacrifice police officers have made in the Manly Electorate, and across the Northern Beaches more broadly.
“Today is an opportunity to pay tribute and say a huge thank you to the officers who put their lives on the line and who dedicate themselves each and every day to keeping our communities safe,” Mr Griffin said.
Shadow Minister for Police Paul Toole said today is an opportunity to show our support for our police and thank them for their bravery and service every single day.
“On National Police Remembrance Day we pay our respects to those police officers who have lost their lives to protect us all,” Mr Toole said.
“We also remember those who have lost their lives through illness, injury or other circumstances, and we stand with those they have left behind.
“To those who have a heavy heart on this day – those carrying the grief that comes with losing someone close to them – we acknowledge and stand with you.
“Our police spend every day working to keep our community safe often running towards danger, when the natural instinct would be to run the other way.
Hundreds of serving and retired police officers and their families will gather to mark National Police Remembrance Day.
Services will be held across the state and at the Wall of Remembrance in The Domain, Sydney to honour the fallen officers who have died in the line of duty since 1862.
