BLUE HOPE

April 7, 2016

Today Blue HOPE remembers the passing of Detective Inspector Shane Dall’Osto (QPS) who died by suicide on this day 2 years ago. Shane was one of those unique individuals who was loved by all, and he was an exceptional police officer. More than that, he was an exceptional human being.

Shane’s death is why Blue HOPE exists today. It rocked the policing world, especially in Queensland, and the co-founders started asking the difficult questions about why police officers sometimes refuse to reach out to internal supports and at times struggle to access life saving support.

Let us be clear. We support everything that police services throughout Australia do in support of their staff. Blue HOPE feels strongly that the more options that are available for police officers the better, because after all, we are all wired a little differently. What is good for some, is out of the question for others.

Blue HOPE was created to cater for that percentage of police officers who would prefer an anonymous, independent support service staffed by people with extensive policing experience. For those who simply won’t turn to internal supports.

If that sounds like you, Blue HOPE stand ready.

Shane, you will forever be missed but we hope that the people who loved you find some comfort in the fact that over 130 police officers have found the support they need because Blue HOPE was forged in the wake of your passing.
