18.01.2022 We are excited that Apmere is re-opening for a new season in the yellow shed on the Flynn Church grounds. Come along as we celebrate with them tonight: Thurs Sept 12, 6:30pm.

16.01.2022 John Lawrence is pretty much on the money: so little has changed since the Royal Commission sparked by Don Dale that it is hard to believe there is any real will out there to do so. Kids languish - their families stuck on the edge. Homelessness, housing shortages, poverty and general alienation from a society that sends messages of disrespect combined with over-policing is all left in the 'too hard basket.' I am proud that our small band of volunteers keep The Meeting Place y...outh space open each week to allow a reprieve for many of these young people: a chance to hang out in the centre of town in a space they can call their own. We want to expand this opportunity for these young people. We want to talk about housing, about new models and new opportunities for employment and training. We want to talk about the Uluru Statement from the Heart; about what it means, what it is calling us to. We want to keep up the belief that it is not all hopeless, but as the Territory grows to be 50% indigenous by 2040 that a new sense of life together might emerge. We are committed to doing our part. We look forward to others getting involved, to others pitching in, to friends joining in standing in the gap, to meeting others halfway. It's coming up on the EOFY.
