The New South Wales Police Force has a policy and program area supporting members of sexuality, gender diverse and intersex communities. The ‘GLLO’ program.
GLLOs are specific officers available for concerns, advice, reporting, and any police matter that individuals might feel best handled by them.
Armidale Police have two new Queer Liaison Officers;
- Ben Patton – 37810@police.nsw.gov.au
- Teegan Smith – 52761@police.nsw.gov.au
Please do not wait to report a crime – report it immediately to your local police. You can request follow-up support from a GLLO.
