24.01.2022 With recent COVID-19 outbreaks across NSW, go to the NSW Government website and check if you have visited any of the public places (e.g. restaurants, gyms, pubs... etc.) where people were infectious with COVID-19. For the latest COVID-19 case locations in NSW click >> https://bit.ly/3gdu7jx If you visited these places at the listed times you need to get a COVID-19 test and self-isolate. As more people are diagnosed with COVID-19, the NSW Government will keep updating this list. We recommend you check regularly to see if you need to take action to slow the spread of COVID-19. #StopCOVID-19 #KeepOurMobSafe #GetTested

16.01.2022 National Sorry Day | Today we commemorate, reflect and mourn the stolen generations. Today we will remember and recognise the trauma and mistreatment of our people, including our own families. Today is also a day to remember how strong and resilient our people are and we thank our mob who worked on the Bringing Them Home Report and fought for a national apology. We also recognise that the system still isnt right for our people and there are many cracks in the system still o...ppressing our people. We ask our non-Indigenous brothers and sisters to also commemorate this day with us and learn our countrys real history and our peoples stories. Were still here Were still strong Were still deadly #Nationalsorryday #Sorryday #Stillhere #Stillstrong #Stilldeadly

12.01.2022 CHANGING COMMUNITIES. CHANGING LIVES. Thats the theme for this years National Volunteer Week currently running and we think its perfect for our deadly volunteers who truly are changing our communities and changing lives, especially the lives of our jarjums ... We would like to take this time to thank our volunteers across all of our locations. Without volunteers, our programs wouldnt run as smooth as they do. It saddens us that we cant celebrate with you face to face and that we havent been able to see you in a while but well be back on deck soon and working together to empower our communities. The heart of a volunteer is never measured in size, but by the depth of the commitment to make a difference in the lives of others THANK YOU to our following Volunteers: Gil | Jamie Priddis Cowra | Helen Wilson Orange | Erin & Ally Lithgow | Aunty Kym, Val, Jakoby, Charlotte and Lukas Bathurst | Susan, Jo Simpson, Malyan, Tonilee, Shona, Simone R, Zoi, Gabby, Alana, Robyn, Maria Pia, Norm, Jo Southorn, Simone T, Sarah, Julie, Gloria and Brendan.

11.01.2022 Today marks the beginning of this years National Reconciliation Week and the anniversary of the 1967 referendum. Reconciliation Week will end next Wednesday, the 3rd of June on Mabo Day. We encourage you to research the 1967 referendum and Eddie Mabos fight for Indigenous land rights. During National Reconciliation Week, we recognise our Aboriginal history, the oldest living culture in the world but we also recognise that truly reconciling is a two way street between Indig...enous and Non-Indigenous People. We cannot fight this fight and reconcile unless our Non-Indigenous brothers and sisters are willing to fight the fight with us, not just during weeks like these but all 52 weeks of the year. Stand with us, support us We work on Wiradjuri, Gamilaroi/Gamilaraay and Wailwan Country and pay our respects to our Ancestors. We acknowledge our Elders - past, present and emerging. Through our work in our communities, we will always strive to work together for the better of our people and for a future of respect, understanding and acknowledgement towards our culture. #InThisTogether
