To commemorate National Police Remembrance Day police, their families and community members will take time on Thursday, September 29 to pay tribute to fallen officers.
National Police Remembrance Day is held every year to honour police around the country who have lost their lives and ensure the integrity, courage and bravery of their sacrifice is never forgotten.
Services are held around Queensland and Australia. Check with your local police for events in your area.
In Brisbane, police will march through the CBD for the first time since 2019. Following the march, a service will be held at the Police Memorial, Brisbane City Botanic Gardens.
If you are unable to make the service in person, you are invited to view the livestream on our Facebook page or online.
The Queensland Police Service instead invites you to remember alongside them by joining in the viewing of a live streamed service on National Police Remembrance Day.
