NSW Police Legacy lunch in Newcastle hears thin blue line gets thicker in tough times

FOR the past year, Margaret Williams has been asking herself “what if”.

What if she had pressured her son to see the doctor. What if she had called more often. Just what if they detected the cancer sooner.

Mrs Williams lost her son, Clinton Williams, a respected police officer with the Brisbane Waters Local Area Command, in September last year to brain cancer, leaving behind a wife and two children, and sorrow between the thin blue line.

But as the grandmother has found, thanks to NSW Police Legacy, the thin blue line gets thicker in times of heartache.

Families of NSW Police Force personnel, including those killed in the line of duty, came together on Thursday at Newcastle police station for the legatee lunch – an initiative that is more than just breaking bread, but recognition that personal sacrifice has not been forgotten.

Mrs Williams, who was attending her first legatee lunch, said the value of a sympathetic ear had been “absolutely fantastic”.

“They [Police Legacy] have been very, very supportive,” she said. “It’s been a tough year on the family – a lot of those what if questions – but you realise you’re not alone.”

Newcastle City Local Area Commander Superintendent John Gralton said local cops had a proud history of supporting Legacy.

“That’s something that will continue,” he said. “We will continue to fundraise because it’s all about caring for the police family, one that you’re always part of. We say the thin blue line gets thicker in times of adversity.”

NSW Police Legacy said the luncheon was one of many services provided to the families of fallen Hunter police officers.

The organisation also runs holiday programs and hands out more than $250,000 in education grants per year for Legacy children.

A recent challenge has been responding to what happens after police leave the force and the effects of post traumatic stress disorder.

Mrs Williams said her son’s illness probably went unnoticed because he maintained a high pain threshold as a police officer.

“We need to recognise the sacrifices, and if only we could do it more often,” she said.
