Well done Gateway Family Services !

The wonderful school community over at Blaxland East Public School collected toiletries and personal care items for our Essentials Emergency Relief Program.

We were astounded at the amount they collected, and our volunteers popped over the road yesterday to bring everything back to our pantry.

These items can be expensive to buy, so being able to provide shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes, toothpaste and other toiletries helps relieve financial pressure on the families who access our service.

A massive thanks to all of the students, staff, parents and carers and who donated.

Winter is finally here Brrrrrrr. Hands & Feet Blaxland would like to remind people in the Lower Mountains Community that we are distributing grocery items every Wednesday at the Blaxland Gospel Chapel from our usual time of 11am to 12pm. We are on the corner of Boorea and Rusden Roads. We are here to support the entire community no questions asked. Yes we are a Christian Community with a deep love of Christ but we don't care what your religious beliefs are - we are here for everybody. Many people are struggling at the moment. It can be very difficult at first to ask for help if you have never had to before. You will find our team warm, open hearted and super non-judgemental. You can even have a free hot coffee or tea whilst you wait for your number to be called! You never know you may even make some new friends! If you are struggling to put food on your table or if you know anyone who is please, please tell them to come and see us on a Wednesday morning. If you have ever been to East Blaxland you might remember the distinctive 70's a-frame building. That's us!
