Yesterday, Defenders for Hope, a domestic violence charity, revealed many victims were living in tents in a Logan park.

Acting Mayor of Logan, Scott Bannon, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, “We didn’t know about it, as soon as we heard the interview [on 4BC Drive], we had to contact QPS and YFS and the critical response team from Queensland Housing straight away.”

“As early as yesterday we had a crisis team go through the park in Beenleigh and coordinated with the critical response team from Queensland Housing, YFS, and QPS.”

“We’re very proactive and seeing what we can do to help these people, especially, the men and women that are victims of DV,” Acting Mayor Bannon continued.
