NSW Police are once again swapping their blue hats for beanies to help raise awareness for brain cancer research.
More than 100 police will join the ‘Beanie for Brain Cancer’ awareness campaign to support the Mark Hughes Foundation.
The officers will wear the beanies during their shifts at six Sydney NRL games in Round 19 starting tonight.
Funds raised are used to research the cause and treatment for brain cancer in the hope of finding a cure.
“Across this round of footy our officers will be out in force wearing beanies to raise awareness for brain cancer research – it’s a simple swap that can make a huge difference.” said NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller.
Since the ‘Beanie for Brain Cancer’ campaign was launched in 2014, the Mark Hughes Foundation has raised more than $2.3 million for brain cancer research.
The community are encouraged to don their own beanie or buy a beanie to support the campaign.
