🦀Channel 7 Mandurah CrabFest 🦀

On the 14th and 15th of March, our teams from TIS (Tackling Indigenous Smoking), the Youth Advisory Group, Aged Care and Community Liaison set up some little, fun, moorditj activities at this year’s Channel 7 Mandurah Crab Fest !

Our lovely teams provided showbags with toys and activities, face painting, fun activities such as golf putting and bracelet making, and some information stalls providing details about our TIS education and SWAMS general info.

It was an amazing turnout for our staff and community, with many smiles on everyone's faces.

We hope to see you there next year!
