COVID UPDATE
Please note: we are meeting face to face with all COVID restrictions in place and appropriate distancing – but this could change according to the Health Dept directions over the course of this year 2021.
Please ring to make sure the support group meeting listed will take place and where it is meeting. Due to social distancing and numbers we have had to make changes to the venue for the Gippsland group. The venue could change depending on availability so contact us.
