Today we acknowledge National Police Legacy Day, a day to honour the service and sacrifice of police members past and present, and to recognise the enduring strength of the families who carry their legacy forward. 💜

For more than five decades, Police Legacy organisations across Australia have stood beside our policing community, providing unwavering support through both loss and life’s milestones. Today is a reminder of the compassion, connection, and commitment that underpins that support.

We also recognise the vital role these organisations continue to play in ensuring no police family walks alone - today and every day. 🌼

Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.

An important opportunity to come together and stand against the abuse, mistreatment and neglect of older people.

We all have a role to play in raising awareness about and preventing elder abuse.

So, what is elder abuse? We define elder abuse as any act by a trusted person or a family memberwhich causes harm to an older person.

The different types of elder abuse can include:
◼emotional and psychological abuse
◼financial abuse
◼neglect
◼social abuse
◼physical abuse
◼sexual abuse.

If you know or suspect on older person is being abused – do not ignore the signs and speak up, by making a report to police. Any information provided is crucial to help stop those causing abuse to older people.

In an emergency always call Triple Zero (000).

In non-urgent cases if you know or suspect an older person is being abused and prefer to make an anonymous report, you can do so online via Crime Stoppers Victoria: www.crimestoppersvic.com.au/report-a-crime
