Wyndham’s welfare agencies were out in force last Friday, determined to provide the city’s most vulnerable residents with a day of fun.
Werribee Support and Housing and other welfare, employment and health groups ran a community fun day at Werribee’s Kelly Park to mark Homeless Persons Week.
The event featured a jumping castle, face painting, mobile farm and sausage sizzle.
Social worker Jackie Ceratti said she hoped the occasion had helped raise awareness of the cost of homelessness, not just to individuals but to the community.
“Our aim was to provide fun activities to the community’s vulnerable while promoting and providing information of relevant support services in our municipality,” she said.
