Each year members of the NSW police community compete in the annual Bill Crews Cup, held in honour of Detective Constable William “Bill” Crews, who died on 9 September, 2010.

On Sunday 2 July 2017, 35 police legatees gathered at Sydney Airport to head off on a journey of a lifetime. This was never going to be your average adventure camp - their destination of Uluru and Kata Tjuta would see to that.

As a part of the 30th Anniversary celebrations, NSW Police Legacy announced that their support now includes Special Constables of the NSW Police Force. The move marks an important milestone for the NSW Police Force charity, and one that arose from the need to develop a greater understanding of the contemporary nature of policing following the murder of Mr Curtis Cheng in October 2015 at the NSW Police Force Headquarters in Parramatta.

For several years now, NSW Police Legatees have looked forward to and enjoyed the annual Family Day event.
