Acting Sergeant Timothy Lowth with Stephen Bennett MP Burnett and Kathy from Relationships Australia Bundaberg.
Dads across Bundaberg Patrol Group were able to celebrate yesterday at Foundations Care Family Fun Day and be recognised for the important role they play in families and society. We are fortunate to have a number of our male police officers and staff being dads in their private lives and in their professional policing role, they are often considered to be role models to children who may not have a father figure in their lives.
