24.01.2022 Thank you for your amazing support this winter The Green Dry Clean

23.01.2022 We are fortunate to have a lovely member of community who has been sewing items for us over the last couple of weeks, with her support ongoing. Here is Sandra, a womens and childrens refuge worker, with some of the beautiful mother and children bag bundles.

23.01.2022 To all the girls out there that thinks this is love. Control is never love. Of any of this sounds fimilar get out quick.

22.01.2022 Well done and congratulations Housing Plus on the completion of your 20 brand new properties. Been a pleasure to work with you.

19.01.2022 Numerous current and former staff, students and parents from St Kevins College have told Four Corners the school has a history of failing to adequately deal with complaints of inappropriate behaviour.

17.01.2022 It is unimaginable that every week another woman is MURDERED through domestic violence in Australia. When will it end https://bit.ly/2HfCniR

15.01.2022 EDIT: Hannah Clarke has died! These little children are dead in what appears to be an horrific deliberately fire in Brisbane. The woman - Hannah Clarke - is c...ritical. She yelled "he poured petrol on me" as she fled the burning car, witnesses said. Hannah was mum to Laianah, Aaliyah and Trey. The man who died is the childrens father and police have acknowledged there was ongoing domestic abuse. Every indication is that this is a cruel act of domestic violence. He jumped into the car, tossed petrol over the children and Hannah, set them alight and then used a knife to kill himself. It is fair to say that violence in Australia has reached heinous new heights. To burn three kids alive is just the most abhorrent act. Their deaths coincided with news today that the national domestic violence helpline saw a massive increase in calls over the past year and many of those callers - women like Hannah - were not receiving the responses and support they needed. If our national helpline for DV victims cannot cope, we will see many more women and children killed. Today, Australia really is broken!

11.01.2022 There was a little coffee shop, where two people arrive and approach the counter. "Five coffees please. Two for us and three hanging. They paid, they took... their two coffees and left. I asked the waiter. "Whats this about hanging coffees?" "Wait and youll see." Some more people came in. Two girls asked for a coffee each, they paid & left. The following order was for seven coffees and it was made by three women - three for them and four hanging coffees. I was left wondering...what is the meaning of the hanging coffees, they leave. Suddenly, a man dressed in worn clothes, who looks like he might be homeless, arrives at the counter and asks sincerely. " Do you have a coffee hanging?" Yes we do sir They serve him a coffee.... I got my answer on these famous " HANGING COFFEES" People pay in advance for a coffee that will be served to whoever cant afford a hot drink. This tradition started in Naples. Amazingly its spread throughout the worlds cities and towns. Its also possible to order not only "hanging coffees" but also a sandwich or a full low cost meal. Make sure to publish this beautiful idea to everyone. Share it if you want to help promote the idea too. Wouldnt it be great if we could all start doing this in the cities, towns and villages where we live. Let me know if your local coffee shop does this. They all need promoting Please like & share our page

10.01.2022 The ABC uncovers a multi-million-dollar scam where people facing homelessness and drug addiction are made company directors to rip off the tax office and do over creditors. | ABC News

10.01.2022 This is 59-year-old teacher and musician Dianne Barrett. Dianne disappeared from her Medina home in May last year. Yesterday, Western Australia police confirm...ed Dianne had been murdered as they charged a man over her death. Police also believe they have found her body in Karrakup. Diannes death means Australia lost 270 lives to suspected murder or manslaughter in 2019 - Dianne was the 74th woman killed last year. Its been a long slog for Diannes family. Her brother suspected she had been killed and media in July: Im thinking foul play, but how serious or to what degree Im unsure of. This is totally out of character. Im toying with the idea she could be being held against her own will. I cant think of any other reason because she hasnt showed up anywhere. The man charged with Diannes murder is also suspected in the 1992 killing of Annette Steward in Geelong. RIP DIANNE BARRETT!

09.01.2022 This is 29-year-old Joyce Clarke. On September 17, 2019, Joyce was shot to death in her home at Geraldton. Today, a police officer was charged with her murder.... Police were at Joyces home after her family asked for their help to take her to hospital. She did nothing wrong but the police officer "discharged" his firearm. The charge of murder follows protests by Joyces family in the wake of her unjustified and unwarranted death. Joyce was having difficulty at home, she was vulnerable and she needed support. Instead, when authorities came to help her, she was killed. I honestly cannot express how heartbroken I am about Joyces death. This is something that we should be raging in the streets about. Indigenous women already suffer so many hardships - they experience higher rates of violence, they lose more babies, their lives are so much shorter, they endure institutional and community racism and they live in poverty, made worse by the Indue card and being jailed for fines. Surely we all have some rage in our hearts for Joyce? Dont we? RIP JOYCE CLARKE! *Note: Joyces family have given permission for her name and photo to be published.

08.01.2022 The Victims Rights Commissioner has proposed changes to Victims Support which will deny victims-survivors of crime the supports they have a right to and need. We call on the Commissioner and the Attorney General to stop proposed Victims Support changes and start victim-survivor led review. #IStandWithVictimsSurvivors

05.01.2022 Unfortunately issues about homeless do not stop at State boundaries. Nationally we need 200,000 new and additional social housing properties. And that is just to address the current wait lists.
