💙 National Police Legacy Day 2026 💙
On the 17th of June we paused to honour the WA Police officers who have died in service, and to stand beside the families who carry their memory forward.
We were honoured to gather at Government House Western Australia for a reception hosted by His Excellency the Honourable Chris Dawson AC APM, Governor of Western Australia and former WA Police Commissioner. Surrounded by serving officers and friends of WA Police Legacy, it was an evening of reflection, gratitude and connection.
In his address, the Governor reminded us that those who died while they served will never be forgotten. They are remembered by an organisation that stands beside their families, and by a community that holds them in deep respect.
To everyone who joined us, lit a landmark blue, shared our message or simply took a quiet moment to remember, thank you. Your support is the reason no WA police family faces loss alone.
We have walked alongside these families since 1992, and we will keep doing so for as long as they need us.

Tomorrow, Wednesday 17 June, is National Police Legacy Day, a day to honour and support the families of our WA Police officers who have died whilst serving.
Today in State Parliament, the Minister for Police, Hon Reece Whitby MLA, gave a Brief Ministerial Statement recognising the day and the work of WA Police Legacy in caring for these families across Western Australia.
You can watch his statement in the video below.
The day honours the work of the nation’s eight Police Legacy organisations and the support they provide to police and their families, with every state and territory caring for those who serve and the families left behind.
Tomorrow is a chance to recognise the work our WA Police officers do for our community every day, and to stand with the families who support them.
