24.01.2022 It's R U OK?Day, a reminder that every day is a day to start a conversation that could change a life. Today we're calling on Australians to learn what to say after R U OK? so they can keep the conversation going when someone says they're not OK. There's more to say after R U OK?... Learn what to say when listening with an open mind Learn what to say when encouraging action Learn what to say when checking in Learn how to continue a conversation that could change a life. When we know what to say next we can help someone open up and find pathways to support long before they're in crisis. Learn what to say next and help us move closer to our vision of a world where we're all connected and are protected from suicide. Head to www.ruok.org.au/how-to-ask

12.01.2022 ** GRANT SUCCESS NARROGIN BOWLS CLUB ** Great news today for the Narrogin Bowls Club! A grant submission to the Department of Local Government Sport & Cu...ltural Industries (DLGSCI) Community Sporting & Recreation Facilities Fund (CSRFF) has been successful for the construction of a 7-rink synthetic green to replace one of the existing grass greens. One third each will be contributed to the cost of the construction by the State Government, the Shire of Narrogin and the Narrogin Bowling Club. The synthetic green will be great for members and volunteers at the Club who will be able to enjoy greater time ‘on the green’ rather than ‘preparing’ the green. The Shire of Narrogin is pleased to be able to support the Club in its endeavours to make the Club more accessible and playable ‘all year round’ and reduce the burden on volunteers. See more

Since its inception in 2011, KidSport has been hugely popular and has provided more than $31 million through 192,000 vouchers to help kids across WA play sport - and it is fantastic we are able to build on this success with KidSwim.
