Senior Sergeant David Tierney … looking for two lots of volunteers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

October 10, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you ever thought you’d like to help make the local community a safer place for everyone to enjoy?<\/p>\n

Then Officer-in-Charge of Kingaroy Police Senior Sergeant David Tierney has a few opportunities for you …<\/p>\n

* * * <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Police are looking for people to get involved in establishing a South Burnett Crime Stoppers committee.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crime Stoppers is a partnership between the registered charity Crime Stoppers Queensland Limited (Crime Stoppers), the Queensland Police Service, the media and the public.<\/p>\n

Snr Sgt Tierney is looking for volunteers to form a local committee which could arrange one or two fundraising events every year for Crime Stoppers.<\/p>\n

Kingaroy Police are also looking for four or five volunteers to become co-ordinators for a Kingaroy Neighbourhood Watch group.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Snr Sgt Tierney said it was envisaged that this Kingaroy group would be social media driven, rather than traditional face-to-face meetings.<\/p>\n

A Police Liaison Officer would be assigned to the group, and support and training would be provided.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in either of these opportunities, take a look at the the links below and contact Snr Sgt Tierney on (07) 4160-4900 between 8:00am and 2:00pm, Monday to Friday.<\/strong><\/p>\n
