Operational police deal with vulnerable people within their communities on a day to day basis, so have a good understanding of the hunger problems that go hand in hand with hardship.
For the second year running, police stations from North Brisbane are extending their community service by collecting non-perishable food for donating. This year the food drive will focus on the devastating effects of long term drought on our farmers and graziers.
The following police stations within North Brisbane have collection boxes for both the QPS staff and officers, and members of the general public to contribute too. Every little bit helps and all stations will be collecting until December 8.
Carseldine Police Station located at 1615 Gympie Road Carseldine
Boondall Police Station located at 149 Muller Road, Boondall
Sandgate Police Station located at 80 Brighton Road, Sandgate
