THUMBS UP to Paula and the team for ensuring everything is organised at the Ararat Relief Centre! 👍🏻

Paula and the team at the Ararat relief centre have everything organised.

Food, clothes, warm beds, dinner vouchers to the Ararat RSL, a big TV with the soccer on, and even a face painting station for the kids!

I met several residents from Elmhurst staying at the centre tonight - including Michael who works at Moonambel Primary School.

And Christine who was thankful for a warm shower after a stressful few days.

There’s more space and support for those who need it.

Address: Alexandra Oval, Waratah Avenue, Ararat.
