16.01.2022 Legendary land rights campaigner farewelled Hundreds have gathered in the remote Northern Territory outback to farewell a much-loved pioneer of the land rights movement. Jimmy Wavehill was buried at Kalkaringi, almost 500km south-west of Katherine, at the weekend - laid to rest on the Country he and others fought to win back during the Wave Hill Walk-Off of 1966.... He was one of the last remaining workers who walked off the property in 1966, owned by Briton Lord Vestey, in a fight for equal pay which also became a struggle for land rights. A Mudburra man, Mr Wavehill moved to Wave Hill Station to work as a horse breaker aged just 17. He met his wife Biddy and fell in love, building a life and a family on Gurindji country.

05.01.2022 A partnership between health organisations Sunrise Health Service Aboriginal Corporation and Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia Is helping remote communities like Wugularr increase their vaccination rates Last week nurses from Royal Flying Doctor Service and Sunrise Health Service Aboriginal Corporation gave out 110 vaccinations. It was an increase from the 75 administered the first time RFDS visited Wugularr, a remote community 115km southeast of Katherine. ... Sunshine Health Service nurse Margaret O’Sullivan said people in the community had been very reluctant to get vaccinated. It was great to have RFDS come out and promote it as it really helped people get the jab, and we still have people asking for it now, she said. Attorney-General Selena Uibo who visited the clinic said the turnout was due to strong leadership from Traditional Owners who were stepping up to the vaccination challenge. Sunrise Health has been working with mob in the Big River region to increase vaccination rates which are currently 64 per cent second dose. The clinic will continue to provide vaccinations to the community.
