- Operation of an Opportunity Shop, selling clothing and other items and providing these items for free to those in particular need;
- Promoting a sense of community to both existing and new residents by publishing a monthly community newsletter, ‘The Jindera News’ that highlights the activities of community groups and organisations in the region;
- Referral to Local and National Resources;
- Our Carer’s Group provides confidential counselling and support. We endeavour to assess and meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of individuals and families within the community, in a caring and supportive way;
