20.01.2022 Earlier this year we spent some time with Darrylin Gordon at her home, Lamboo Station in Halls Creek. Darrylin is a proud Aboriginal Djaru woman who is passiona...te about many things but mostly, being a positive role model and influential leader to others. Darrylin’s love for the station and bush life lead her to become the first Aboriginal female winner of the WA Rural Women’s Award in 2018 and the National runner up that same year. What an inspiration #HerRulesHerGame Thanks to Goolarri Media for the filming and production of this clip See more

15.01.2022 From November 14th, the WA border will be less restricted, so it’s now even more important to get tested if you have symptoms of COVID-19. Testing means COVID-19 is picked up early, before it spreads. Anyone with symptoms of COVID-19 like a fever, runny nose, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, or a loss of taste or smell, should get tested even if you don’t feel that sick. You only need ONE symptom and it can be mild. Don’t wait get tested straight away. ... After the test, stay home until you get a negative result and no longer have symptoms. For more information about testing and to find your nearest testing location, call the WA Government COVID19 information line: 13COVID (13 26843) Interstate Callers: 1800 595 206 For information regarding WA border restrictions, visit: https://www.wa.gov.au//covid-19-coronavirus-controlled-int Additional COVID-19 Information for Aboriginal people is available at: https://healthywa.wa.gov.au//Coronavirus-information-for-A and http://kams.org.au/covid19-resources/

06.01.2022 We look at local role models and prove that if you’re healthy, you can be anything. There’s a lot of familiar faces in this so tag them if you see them! And a big thanks to Rhythm Content for putting it all together and an even bigger thanks to the Derby community for taking part!

05.01.2022 Ten Mulan women have come together to write and record music, in the rare East Walmajarri language, alongside Kankawa Nagarra ‘Olive’ Knight. These kinds of wo...rkshops need to keep going for the future of our desert women, to break the cycle, and empower our young women to build strong communities. https://news.wapha.org.au/womens-voices-take-centre-stage-/ KAMS LTD.
