Mt Druitt Police Area Command recognises Refugee Week as Australia’s peak annual celebration to raise awareness of refugee experiences and honour the contributions refugees make to our communities. This year’s theme, “A Million Stories,” marks the one million humanitarian visas granted since 1947 and highlights the many journeys that have helped shape our nation.

We are proud to attend Mt Druitt TAFE alongside multicultural service providers celebrating Refugee Week. This was a great opportunity for community members to meet our officers and take home a crime prevention showbag. We remain committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and respectful community for all.

Yesterday, Superintendent Darrin Batchelor joined local MP Edmond Atalla at Baabayn Aboriginal Corporation to raise new flags and spend time with members of the Baabayn community.

The visit provided an opportunity to connect, have a yarn with community members, and continue strengthening the positive relationships between police and the community we serve.

We thank Baabayn Aboriginal Corporation for the important work they do in supporting, empowering and bringing people together through their Healing Centre.

We look forward to continuing our partnership and working alongside the Baabayn team and community into the future.

Mount Druitt Police are warning the community about an increase in Facebook Marketplace scams where sellers are being targeted.

In these incidents, offenders arrange to view an item for sale and ask to inspect it in person. During the inspection, the offender will suddenly grab the item and run away before payment is made, leaving the seller at a loss.

To help reduce your risk, if you are meeting someone in person to buy or sell an item, consider arranging to meet in a busy public place with CCTV coverage such as inside a fast food restaurant, Police Station or shopping centre
