White Ribbon Day is a powerful reminder of our collective responsibility to create a safer, more respectful community for women and children. On 25 November, our team proudly stands with the White Ribbon movement to raise awareness, spark conversations, and show support for those affected by domestic and family violence.

Rural communities like ours can face unique challenges when it comes to accessing support. By raising awareness, we help make our pharmacy a safe and trusted place where people can seek help and start important conversations.

Looking after your health doesn’t have to mean big changes — it’s the small daily habits that make the biggest impact!

Here are 3 simple ways to boost your wellbeing:
😴 Sleep: Aim for 7–9 hours each night to recharge your body and mind.

💧 Hydration: Keep a water bottle nearby and sip regularly — even mild dehydration can affect energy levels.

🚶‍♀️ Movement: Take short walks, stretch between tasks, or have a quick dance in the kitchen — every bit counts!

Start small, stay consistent, and your future self will thank you. 💙
