17.01.2022 = A HOME AT LAST = Another great outcome for a Safe Space Guest. Today taking delivery of her new house keys! If you’ve been following her story our 64 year old guest finally received permanent housing today after living two years in her car. After a couple months at #burniesafespace we connected her with all the right services and she can now finally call a house a home! Much love community for following her story and the donations that you have made #salvationarmytas Roger Jaensch

16.01.2022 What an amazing approach, well done Salvation Army and Kim Maree Haworth for continuing to support the community.

16.01.2022 = PLEASE HELP & DONATE = Milk, Coffee and Sugar! When you’ve got 15 guests a night and more during the day these items don’t last long! Last week we went through 21L of Betta milk alone, not including the long life! When it comes to food and staples we rely on donations. If you can donate a tin of coffee, or one long life milk or a bag of sugar. It would go a long way to help us utilise the governments budget for more essential services required for our guests! If you can donate, PM us and we’ll point you in the right direction! If you aren’t in a position too, PLEASE SHARE this post! Share anyway! Much Love Safe Space.

13.01.2022 If you’re struggling financially, talk to the Salvos! We’re here to help. Completely confidential. Just click the link below

13.01.2022 = PLEASE SHARE = A TESTIMONIAL! One of our guests, a 64 year old female who is an amazing woman, kind, thoughtful and takes many young women under wing at the Space had this to say about her experience at Burnie Safe Space so far! These are her words!

12.01.2022 = PLEASE SHARE = BSS is approaching 400 night stays, and due to covid restrictions we are running low on New Pillows especially, and still require some sleeping bags. Please feel free to PM if you can donate.

11.01.2022 Feel good post! = JOB NEEDED = One of our guests has been doing amazing since coming to the Burnie Safe Space, he’s in his mid 20’s, he’s fit and healthy and willing to work! He’s got a certificate IV in Land Conservation and finishing of his Cert III in Horticulture, he can even break horses if needed! He’s an extremely hard worker and can give you the Latin name for almost all plants which goes over my head! If anyone is looking for a Farm assistant, seasonal worker, a landscape assistant or anyone that requires help in forestry! I’ll vouch highly for the young man! Please feel free to PM for details and a resume.

11.01.2022 = PLEASE SHARE, OR DONATE = With over 15 guests a night, Christmas is upon us! We would love to give our homeless guests a great Christmas. Full of cheer and wonderment! We are hoping for our community to get behind us and help us deliver a Christmas that our guests have not experienced in a long time! We are praying for donations of a Christmas tree and Christmas decorations to make our shelter feel like a home, if just for one day! If you can donate please PM us! Much love!

11.01.2022 Winner of the Father’s Day Bunnings voucher, announced soon....And the winner is?

10.01.2022 Homelessness starts somewhere! Regardless of how the perception is of people who are. Some may say, it’s a choice? It’s through bad decisions! And in some cases we can see why you would think that, but those people are still human and deserving of a second chance. In the majority of cases it starts early and through a lot of bad circumstances, no fault of their own! These figures are worrying, and of real concern. We wished our Space didn’t have to exist, but it does becaus...e we care, and it’s needed! We are truly helping many in a positive way, and we will continue to do so until we are hopefully no longer needed through change! #burniesafespace #salvationarmy See more

07.01.2022 = PLEASE SHARE = An Update to our amazing community! 500 night stays at the Burnie Safe Space in just a little over 2 months! So who do we accommodate? You ask? #burniesafespacetwentyfourseven accomodates all people that are without housing! We deal daily with people from all walks of life, some come from traumatic backgrounds wether it be from childhood or as an adult subjected to domestic violence. Some may have mental health issues, PTSD or other prescribed illnesses. ... Some are just down on their luck, like the 64 year old and 80 year old women we have as guests at the moment. You never know when you will need a helping hand in life! Burnie Safe Space is a Godsend for many, with no other options available. We provide a dedicated team of talented Case Workers who provide support 24/7 and try to help transition our guests to a better place in life. We have so far provided many with permanent housing, help with AOD issues, assisted with DV situations and transitioned them into more stable accommodations! Burnie Safe Space is helping the majority! There are a few that aren’t quite ready for the help we provide, just know that we will continue to support them until they are, and the ones that we are helping right now and have already, appreciate this communities support and commitment to help. #salvationarmytas

04.01.2022 = CHRISTMAS MIRACLE = On the 18th Oct we posted this lovely Testimonial from a 64 year old female guest who has been with us for a couple of months. She spent two years living in her car before coming to Safe Space. Since her arrival we have re-engaged her with all services and supported her daily! A Christmas miracle has happened and as of next week she has a home of her own to move into. She has also signed up to do a course in community services at TAFE TAS and she promises to come back for Christmas as she would like to spend the day with her new family! #burniesafespace #salvationarmytas Roger Jaensch

04.01.2022 = TRAUMA IS THE CAUSE = Addiction in most cases is the RESULT of that TRAUMA! The majority of people who come through our doors are just down on their luck, needing a place to stay for a few nights or just one night. But the few % who have been primarily homeless for years, it’s not just because they have addiction issues, that’s a result of trauma! Trauma at any age can happen, and if you don’t talk to friends, family, loved ones, specialists! that’s if you have any of the...m in your corner at all, which most don’t! Then at times it can lead to self medication! We want people to look back at all the times you shared on FB #areyouokday #beyondblue etc. We want our friends and family to speak up, we all want to lend a helping hand! But we also ask all of you, when they don’t, where do they go? We are aware of what can happen all too well! And nobody wants to go through that! Burnie Safe Space can be a start! For your mother, father, sister, brother, cousins and so on! You will never know when someone close to you will need our assistance! Just think about that! Please don’t judge who we help on a daily basis! It could be someone you know who is in need of help. They may not ask for your help, but #burniesafespace is here! So is #salvationarmytas If you know someone who is in need of assistance, homelessness, mental health help! They don’t need to be a guest! #salvationarmytas will help regardless and lend a hand that’s needed! May God bless you all.
