In just over 24 hours, a fundraiser for Detective Inspector Amy Scott has raised more than $350,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The generosity of our community is tremendous and a measure of the enormous regard in which Amy is held by the public of NSW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On behalf of the NSW Government, I cannot thank everyone who has donated enough. So far more than 6,000 people have joined the effort to support Amy and her family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yesterday, it was announced that Amy is battling a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is devastating news for her, her family and her colleagues at the Eastern Suburbs Police Area Command and the whole NSW Police family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amy is the epitome of the brilliance of the NSW Police Force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her bravery at Bondi Junction in 2024 is forever stamped in our minds. She put her life on the line and in doing so saved countless others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amy is supported by the entire NSW Police family who are rallying around her as she faces this challenging health battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We wish her every strength in the months ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
