Constable Care was a blue blur this weekend, as a brace of exciting events made for a manic Sunday. First stop was Wireless Hill Park, for City of Melville’s ‘Prepare. Act. Survive’ fire awareness morning in association with FESA and Neighbourhood Watch. Along with important information about how to adequately protect your home if it is threatened by fire, and techniques for increasing security in your home or vehicle, attendees were treated to fire truck tours and a free sausage sizzle. Helping out at the event were voluntary and full time firefighters and representatives from the City of Melville, FESA and Neighbourhood Watch.
Full of important knowledge and delicious hot dogs, Constable Care grabbed his map and backpack and headed north to Jackadder Lake for a date with Dora at City of Stirling’s Kids Festival. Over 6,000 junior explorers and their families attended the event, and enjoyed entertainment from Happy Feet, The Eco Faeries, Snow White and of course Dora the Explorer and her monkey friend Boots. The star of the hit Nickelodeon show and her excited audience went on a musical adventure together, ending at the Big Red Chicken’s Fiesta. Kids and families were able to have a sing and dance with Dora and Boots under the specially provided shaded areas and front of stage in the morning sunshine. As well as the shows and performances, there were train rides, games and plenty of appetising food stalls. The Kids Festival is part of City of Stirling’s week long Summerset Arts Festival, which boasts music, comedy, theatre and much, much more.
Constable Care would like to thank the City of Melville and the City of Stirling for their continued support. The collaboration between Constable Care and Western Australian local government authorities and the assistance we receive enables Constable Care to reach an ever increasing number of primary school children every year, and develop community-specific performances to meet the diverse needs of Western Australian communities. Look out for Constable Care coming to a community event near you soon!

Aussie burger chain Grill’d are known for their wholesome approach to fast food. But as well as a focus on great grub, did you know that they also take a healthy approach to community matters?
Each month sees their Mount Lawley restaurant pick a trio of charities to support. Diners place a token in a jar representing their chosen charity, and the jar/charity with the most tokens/bottlecaps at the end of the month is awarded a cheque for $300. No one goes home empty handed though, and the runners up each receive $100.
This February, Constable Care will battle it out with two other charities in a race to the top of the jar. If you are bursting for a Beaufort Street burger, head in to Grill’d Mount Lawley and after enjoying some top tucker, make sure you cast your vote for Constable Care!
