Green Light for Car Show
Worrigee Supported Accommodation residents were transported back to the 1950s at the Huskisson Car Show, with the sounds of revving engines and old tunes pumping. Read more about how the group spent their Sunday viewing unique cars, getting amongst the local community and socialising with their friends.
SLES Promote Mental Health Awareness
Understanding mental health and breaking down the societal stigma’s around it is an important cause close to the hearts of many Affordian’s.

The Secret Garden
Alfred and Jacob from Blacktown Community Centre had a magical day out experiencing the secret garden, an interactive floral exhibition hidden away at The Grounds of Alexandria.
