Senior Australian of the Year 2022 - Dr Colin Dillon

12 Nov 2021 7:38 AM | Anonymous member

Congratulations to Dr Colin Dillon AM APM  

When Colin joined the Queensland Police Force in 1965, he became the first Indigenous police officer in Australia.

Colin went on to receive the Australian Police Medal, an honorary doctorate from the Queensland University of Technology and an Order of Australia award, for his services to the Indigenous community.

Since retiring from the police force, Colin has served as Chairman of Indigenous radio station, 98.9FM, and as a Director of the Queensland Heart Foundation, his continued community service has earned him the 2022 QLD Senior Australian of the Year award.
