Gateway officers thank their ViPs with Christmas in June

Although National Volunteer Week was celebrated in May this year, officers from the Gateway Patrol Group recently took time to host a Christmas in June lunch to thank all of the wonderful volunteers in policing (ViPs), and acknowledge their generous contribution.
In total, there are currently eight ViPs who volunteer their time and energy to assist the Gateway Crime Prevention team in serving the community.
Some of these ViPs have volunteers for over 15 years and as a group, they have accumulated over 11,000 hours serving the QPS and the community, in the past 15 years.
In North Brisbane, a ViPs main role is to conduct personal visits to victims of crime who are over the age of 65 years, often called a Police Assisting and Liaising with Seniors (PALS) visit.
Everyone has the right to feel safe at all times and it’s important for everyone to take proactive steps to ensure their safety.
