Ex...perience country hospitality at its finest in our local cafes, enjoy a counter meal and a glass of Hilltops wine in one of our local pubs or pop into one of our butcheries and grab some locally raised lamb to cook yourself. Visit the Boorowa museum and experience the Irish history of the region, or learn all about the railway and the Light Horse at The Murrumburrah museum. Spring is the perfect time to visit the #HilltopsRegion

14.01.2022 Meet Jeannette, one of our wonderful team of volunteers who give their time to drive members of our community to medical appointments in places like Wagga, Canberra and Orange along with many more local destinations.

We thank Jeannette along with all our volunteers for their dedication to the community and invite other community members to join us in providing this vital transport service to our community.

06.01.2022 The NSW Government is strongly encouraging NSW citizens to wear a mask in high-risk settings to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in NSW. Wearing a face mask... provides an additional physical barrier to protect the community and help reduce community transmission. Continue to practise physical distancing, wash your hands regularly and if you are unwell stay in and get tested. For more information about the protection that masks provide against COVID-19 visit: https://www.nsw.gov.au/media-/health-advice-update-on-masks

05.01.2022 Confused about when to wear a face mask? We recommend you wear a face mask whenever you can’t physical distance. For example You can find out more here: www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/face-masks

04.01.2022 Masks don’t replace distancing or hygiene. If you’re making a cloth one, aim for three layers, with a water-repellent outside layer. Have a few for when you’re... out. Put the used ones in a plastic bag and wash at home later. Handle them safely like you would a used tissue or hanky. No masks for children under 2 yrs they’re a choking hazard. Learn how to make your own mask. For more information about the protection that masks provide against COVID-19 visit https://www.health.gov.au//coronavirus-covid-19-are-cloth-

04.01.2022 On the 11th of July we celebrated Michele Johnson's retirement after 30 years of service to Weddin Community Transport along with the 30th anniversary of Community Transport in Grenfell. Past and present volunteers, clients , friends , family and Coast & Country Community Services Board members enjoyed a meal at the Bowling Club and shared stories from the last 30 years while wishing Michele all the best in her retirement. Michele and a group of her original volunteer drivers cut a cake which was made as a replica of the CT bus.

02.01.2022 Putting on and taking off a face mask is fast and easy, however it’s important that you do so safely. Watch this video as Dr Jan Fizzell explains how to correct...ly wear a mask. Face masks are strongly recommended in situations where you are unable to maintain a physical distance of 1.5 metres. The main value in wearing a mask is to protect other people. Remember that physical distancing and hand hygiene are the most important things to do right now.

01.01.2022 Anyone with mild to moderate respiratory symptoms is encouraged to be tested for COVID-19. The most common symptoms are a fever, a cough, a sore throat and shor...tness of breath. A dedicated respiratory clinic is now operating at Young, and appointments can be made online at the link below: https://www.hotdoc.com.au//young-respiratory-clin/doctors Murrumbidgee Local Health District LHAC #WellPeople #ResilientCommunities

01.01.2022 MLHD STAFF TO WEAR SURGICAL MASKS From today, Murrumbidgee Local Health District health workers will be wearing surgical masks if they are within 1.5m of patien...ts. Patients in hospital and community health settings will also be required to wear a mask, where possible. Carla Bailey, MLHD Incident Controller COVID-19 Health Emergency Operations Centre, said staff would wear masks as a precautionary measure as masks had proven effective in suppressing COVID-19 transmission. Please don’t become alarmed when you see a health worker wearing a surgical mask, Ms Bailey said. This is an extra precaution we are taking in order to protect our staff and the broader community, on top of a range of other infection control measures. Ms Bailey said significant long-term planning ensured that MLHD had an adequate supply of masks and staff had been trained in how to safely apply and remove masks.
