Story
COPS provides peer support opportunities and access to counselling services to help surviving family members (‘survivors’) rebuild their shattered lives."Your loss is a part of who you are but COPS helps you realise that it doesn’t define you. We are all one big family."Since its foundation in 2003, COPS has helped hundreds of police families devastated by the loss of a loved one who died on duty.
We have tragically lost two friends and colleagues, PC 206 Jason Hill in April 2019 and PC 1158 Alex Prentice in April 2022. We will be riding in memory of both of these incredible officers. Alex was a big supporter of the Unity Tour, driving our minibus every year and dropping off/picking up and helping with our bikes and bags. We never thought for a second we would one day be riding in memory of him, and he was always the first to donate in the past. This year's tour will be very hard for us both but we are determined to make Alex and Jase proud.
