The Thabong police station, situated about 140 kilometres from Bloemfontein, is the leading police station in South Africa.

The Southern Sotho word ‘thabong’ means a place of happiness, which the police members at the station try to emulate when serving the public.

The station won R15 000 prize money in the South African Police Service Excellence Awards, which will go towards buying new equipment for the community service area.
