We do know someone who’s loving this heat… 🐾☀️

Our Kangaroo Paw is thriving while the rest of us are melting 🥵🌿
A true-blue Aussie native, it loves full sun, dry soil, and putting on a show even in a heatwave.

It’s a good reminder that some things bloom in tough conditions — and we can too!

Nursery Closed

Due to the extreme heat expected the GrowAbility Nursery will be closed today and will reopen Saturday from 10am to 3pm.

🌡️ Extreme heat can cause serious and potentially fatal health problems.🌡️

While anyone can be affected, people who are young, old, pregnant, socially isolated, have acute or chronic health problems or limited ways to keep cool, are more at risk.

Tips to protect yourself and others:
🧊 Stay cool. Use air conditioning or a fan. Wear light, loose clothing. Keep skin wet with a spray bottle, sponge or by taking cool showers. If you can’t keep cool at home, think about going to a public pool or air-conditioned building.

💧 Stay hydrated. Keep drinking fluids before you feel thirsty, especially if outdoors and performing physical activity.

👪 Check in with family, friends and neighbours. Let people know you are OK and check in with those who are at increased risk and may need support.

📆 Plan ahead. Watch the forecast and plan activities at cooler times of day.

🚗 Hot cars kill. Never leave kids, adults or pets in cars.

🆘 If needed, ring Nurse-On-Call on 1300 60 60 24 or contact the Victorian Virtual Emergency Department. In an emergency, call Triple Zero (000).

🎄 Christmas message🎄

As we come to the close of another year, I want to take a moment to sincerely thank every part of the Christie Centre family — our participants, staff, partners, volunteers, supporters, friends, and our broader community ❤️🎄

Whatever your Christmas looks like this year, I hope it brings you moments of love, laughter, connection, and comfort. This year has been filled with many challenges and many moments of joy, and through it all, your kindness, generosity, and commitment have been deeply felt. I am incredibly grateful for the care, time, and heart each of you brings to the Christie Centre — it truly makes a difference in people’s lives every single day.

Thank you for standing with us and supporting our work throughout 2025. I wish you all a safe, peaceful, and happy New Year, and I look forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones as we continue our journey together in 2026.

With gratitude and warmest wishes,

Nadiene Lynch (Nadsy)
