Thanks for having us, Nanango Neighbourhood Centre South Burnett CTC Inc! ☕💙

We always value the opportunity to promote health and wellbeing in our rural communities. This month’s Cuppa and Chat provided a wonderful chance to have meaningful conversations about simple steps we can all take to look after our health, including the importance of participating in health screening programs.

It was also great to help community members by offering quick blood pressure and blood glucose checks, while encouraging everyone to stay proactive about their health.

Thank you to everyone who came along!
