24.01.2022 So are so thankful for our wonderful consumers. l Last week when lockdown was announced our staff jumped straight on the phone. We rang our consumers to explain what was happening, asked if they have medications, transport to go shopping and the rules eg masks having to be worn etc. One of our lovely consumers then generously offered to make some masks. Take a peek!!

12.01.2022 Would you like your child restraint checked locally? I have spoken to a qualified fitter that is keen to come over to Mannum and check restraints , dispose of old restraints or install the restraint properly in your vehicle. Depending on interest will depend in the price, the more we can get the cheaper. Otherwise it's about $35 per seat. ... If you are interested please contact Sarah C at the HUB on 8569 1832 or pop a message below.

09.01.2022 URGENT MENTAL HEALTH CARE CENTRE Thanks SA Health, I know this is Adelaide based but definitely an option when you need urgent mental health support. The Urgent Mental Health Care Centre here in SA is now open to the wider community. If you, a friend or a loved one finds themselves struggling and in need of a place to go for a few hours, or until the crisis point has passed, this drop-in centre accepts all with no need of a referral. Sometimes a hospital is not the place you ...need to be, this is where you would go instead. If you are over 16 years of age, this amazing facility offers both a Peer Support team and a Clinical team to support you when you need it most. Urgent Mental Health Care Centre 215 Grenfell St, Adelaide Opening hours: midday-10.30pm every day Family and Pet friendly. https://www.neaminational.org.au/find-services/umhcc/
