The Bermuda Police Service today donated a cheque for $16,764.86 to the Bermuda Hospital Charitable Trust’s [BHCT] “This is Why it Matters” campaign.

The money was raised through a series of events such as Denim Days, car parking at police field, social events at the Police Recreation Club, and a fundraiser held at the Police Ball.

The Commissioner of Police said, “This was an important opportunity for the Bermuda Police Service to show our commitment and engagement with our community outside of our traditional policing roles.

“Everyone in Bermuda benefits from a world class health care facility and the BPS family is honored we could play our small part.”
