25.01.2022 R U OK? We had a great day at OneCare today celebrating R U OK Day! We had goodie bags, cake, balloons and even some horsing around! As much as weve had a fun day, its important to remember that many of us are not ok, and thats ok! Ask your friends if theyre ok, and if theyre not, just keep listening. #onecaregeelong #ruokday2020 #checkonyourmates

19.01.2022 This is Glenn, one of our amazing volunteers. Glenn is awesome. We have learned through COVID to adapt the best we can and roll with the punches. Stage 3 restrictions have been tough on everyone, including our regular participants. So, when your participants are in need and they cant come to you because of COVID, you find amazing people like Glenn who can drop food at their door. Volunteers really are awesome. #strongcommunities #volunteersrock #covid19 #onecaregeelong
