23.01.2022 Clearly, as a society, we have a lot of work to do to eradicate these assaults on our Indigenous players as well as other racist attitudes and we must cont...inue to educate fellow Australians on community expectations. Young West Coast Eagles forward, Jarrod Cameron, has been targeted by trolls dealing out racist comments on social media this week. The Eagles have been steadfast in supporting their players, last year launching a social media hashtag #WhenWillItEnd to highlight the continued racism in the Australia. NIT has the details: https://nit.com.au/racist-troll-attacks-young-eagles-star-/
20.01.2022 Arrived safely into Alice last night. We caught the rain from the night before, for the last 50 odd Ks of the dirt before hitting the seal. Bit of slippy slide...y action. Little truck wasn’t quite sure which direction it should be heading in. And so ended the last 750 ks yesterday of what was an excellent trip. Great bands, a great group and great gigs. Thanks Joe, Gus, James, Dirk, both bands and my special sound mate Dave who gave 110% the whole trip. Photos by Gus Rowe See more

14.01.2022 The women's culture program is all about getting people out on country and connecting with their homelands, through hunting, fishing, storytelling and dancing! ... We held another wonderful women's camp out at Yederr in partnership with the Strong Women Workers at the clinic on June 21-23, and were lucky enough to help more people join the Thamarrurr Rangers' Walk on Country out at Rak Malgin country, Mardanguname/Madjellindi Valley. Looking forward to many more exciting adventures this dry season!
12.01.2022 No school? No pool! The remote Aboriginal community of Walungurru (Kintore) in the Northern Territory is using the lure of the local pool as a way to increase ...school attendance, with the added bonus of improving health and hygiene and lowering infection rates. I have been fortunate to have been invited to visit the community at Walungurru in both 2018 and again in September this year with community group @reddustoz. In conversations with the Elders of the community, I learnt first hand some of the issues they are facing and importantly some of ways in which they want to harness the strength of the community. One of those ways is the importance of the pool as a community hub, a place for people to gather and a place for health and well-being, joy and laughter. I’m reaching out to ask for your support for an amazing project to improve access to the pool for the children on the community through the removal of the school access fee along with other initiatives to support the running of the pool. You can find out more here - https://www.givenow.com.au/crowdraiser/public/makeasplash. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions and thanks so much for your support. @ Kintore N.T.

05.01.2022 As Australia endures another heatwave, chronic water shortages are endangering life-saving kidney treatment for hundreds of Aboriginal people in remote desert communities. The dialysis machines they depend on need cold water, and lots of it. But a run of hot summers mean people are getting worried for their life, according to Dadu Corey, among the elders sitting at the lunch table outside Purple House dialysis clinic in Alice Springs. Purple House operates clinics in 18 rem...ote communities, so Aboriginal people can be on country, receive treatment and still take part in the cultural life of their communities. People with end-stage renal failure usually need dialysis three times a week. A single treatment uses 600 litres of clean, cold water. Too hot for humans? First Nations people fear becoming Australia's first climate refugees Read more The last couple of summers we’ve really struggled with the temperature of the water, says the chief executive, Sarah Brown. The water has to be below a certain temperature or you can’t actually use it for dialysis. And over the last few years, two things have happened. One is that the temperature of the water coming into the system has risen and that’s because the water pipes in the community aren’t far underground. As the ground heats up, because the days are hotter, the water in the pipes is heating up too. The chief executive of Purple House, Sarah Brown, at the clinic in Alice Springs. Photograph: Mike Bowers/The Guardian At Kintore, 530km west of Alice Springs, Purple House raised funds to install a chiller tank inside the clinic to cool water overnight in an air-conditioned room. But this isn’t an option everywhere. It would be incredibly sad if the next reason why people are forced off their country will be because we can’t access enough water to dialyse people. Sarah Brown In most of our communities, where we don’t have chillers, we were having to limit dialysis to one shift a day, whereas before we could do two, Brown says. Last summer nurses were getting up at 4am to get a shift of dialysis done early in the day. It takes five hours, Brown says. If you get up at four, you’ve got the patients on by five o’clock in the morning, you can have the dialysis done by 10am before it’s too hot.

If they need to stay longer for cultural, medical, sporting... or family reasons, you need to apply for permission from your local Housing office.
