Bacchus Marsh Blue Light
Bacchus Marsh Blue Light was established 2006 and is led by Leading Senior Constable Jim Ross and supported by dedicated volunteers. Bacchus Marsh Blue Light stage community events including Blue Light discos and an employment pathways program Barista Blue™
Blue Light Discos are supervised by local Victoria Police members and held at the Bacchus Marsh Leisure Centre. They provide an opportunity for local police and community members to work collaboratively together to host a fun experience for young people in a safe environment.
Barista Blue™ is a training program that provides opportunities for young people to complete a Barista Course at TMG College West Melbourne. Just one component of this program is to undertake a minimum of four hours voluntary work at Lola’s Café in Bacchus Marsh.
Barista Blue™ provides young people with formal training and the opportunity to gain meaningful work experience which can lead to employment opportunities.

Volunteer at a local Blue Light branch
Why volunteer with a Blue Light branch?
Our Blue Light branches are situated across Victoria and rely on the support of volunteers to help stage their events and activities. Quite simply we couldn’t do what we do within local communities without volunteer support.
Blue Light branches have a range of volunteer opportunities support our events and activities which create and promote positive experiences for young people. Should you decide to volunteer for a Blue Light branch it will be essential for us to carefully screen all volunteers to ensure we adhere to Victorian Government Child Safety policy.
All volunteers will require:
- A current Working With Children Check (WWC)
- A National Police Check
- Will need to sign an agreement acknowledging that you understand our Code of Conduct for Working with Children
- Have read and understood the Blue Light Victoria Child Safety Policy
