25.01.2022 NAIDOC Week 2020 acknowledges and celebrates that our nation’s story didn’t begin with documented European contact in 1606 - with the arrival of the Dutch on the western coast of the Cape York Peninsula. The very first footprints on this continent were those belonging to First Nations Peoples. Summit Health wish to acknowledge the traditional owners, the Peramangk people who existed for 2,400 years across the lands of the Adelaide Hills. "Always Was, Always Will Be"... #NAIDOC2020
