Police Catching up with Acting Officer in Charge Sergeant Jody Worthington
Important points:
– Blue Light Disco Friday Jan 16 – 6pm at the basketball courts– Three juveniles in Banksia due to alleged aggravated burglary offences at roadhouse.
– relatively peaceful around town and community doing own policing.
– some random traffic stops for drugs have begun around town.
– some DV incidents… Police do work services in a preventative proactive way. It's not all about people going to jail.
– no further alcohol intercepted at post office so message appears to have been received at the moment.
– while utopia of no crime may never happen police just want to work with community to have as safe a community as possible.

Police catch-up with Fitzroy Crossing Officer in Charge Mark Howes
Jan 2 2025
Andrea caught up with Mark to see how police have found the Christmas New Year period.
Police have found the Christmas New Year period in Fitzroy Crossing peaceful and spent Christmas Day handing out lollies and presents donated by Marra Worra Worra.
There has been a few drink drivers and drivers are warned to not drink and drive as they will be caught. Mark reflecting that the worst job of a police officer is telling someone their family member has died and when it's a drunk driver it's worse as it was avoidable.
There has been a few incidents of rock throwing especially with windows being smashed and vacant houses being damaged. When this goes on social media it becomes the negative focus of outsiders views of the town. The better option is to call police if you see kids especially with slingshots as police will work on preventing damage before of starts.
Mark explained that the anti sly grogging campaign is continuing in partnership with Leedal and Australia Post with the message being
"Dont send it".– Cask wine is banned in the valley in any amount
– Carriage limits apply no matter who you are
-Try to pick it up and you'll be chargedIn good news, Wednesday night footy is continuing 6pm each week.
Mark will be away for January but Jodie Worthington will be acting Officer in Charge in his absence.

Creative Ways of Coping…
Final day 2024New years eve is advertised with glitz, glamour, fireworks and all night drinking with mates.
Some people however end the year with stories that tell them they've failed as they've not taken tbe adventures they've planned, there's been losses in the year and they're struggling to be present while that stories tells them they're no good and life is worth nothing without the people they love.
ACT teaches a way to diffuse from these stories and then be kinder to ourselves.
It does not make light of pain or loss but it helps you separate from the negative story and be in the present anyway.
So lots of thanks brain.
Oh it's the I've never done anything with my life story again …But then unhook by focusing on wnat you see, write it down, sing it and it loses power.
Do something you value tonight if at all possible no matter how tiny.
2025 contains more adventures

Skill #15: Pause and Prayer.
This is the time of the year that we pause and reflect on what has changed during the year.
Today Wangki Radio will pause local programming until January 1 2025. All our links will still be available and we look forward to bringing you more local stories and news on 2025.
In today's recording I speak about the different ways people pause and pray.
Some people are religious and Christmas is their time to go to Church and spend time with community.
Other people spend time on country… Pausing to consider the enduring connection we all have as the river continues to flow and the sun continues to set and rise.
In connecting back to "Willing Hands" skill….however you celebrate this time of year and pause and reflect the words of the serenity prayer can help…
Grant us the Serenity to:
Accept what we cannot change
Change what we can and
The Wisdom to know the differenceListen to recording of this skill here:
