🤧 How Long Do Colds Last? 🤧

Caught a cold? You’re not alone! Most colds last about 7 to 10 days, but everyone’s body reacts differently. Here’s what to expect:

🌟 Days 1–3: Runny nose, sore throat, and sneezing kick in
🌟 Days 4–7: Congestion and coughing may peak
🌟 Days 8–10: Symptoms start to ease, though a lingering cough can stick around

Remember, rest, hydration, and good nutrition are your best friends while your body fights it off.

If symptoms last longer than two weeks or worsen, it’s time to check in with your healthcare provider.

So great to see the Foodbank SA & Central Australia van in Tumby on Thursday.

According to statistics compiled by Foodbank SA 33% of the population of Tumby Bay and the surrounding area is experiencing food insecurity.
In 2019 Foodbank SA launched its first Mobile Food Hub designed to get food to families living in the highest areas of demand.
Following the establishment of a Regional Food Hub in Whyalla it is now preparing to launch the Eyre Peninsula Mobile Food Hub, which will include Tumby Bay.
The Eyre Peninsula Mobile Food Hub is tentatively booked to begin in mid to late June.
The Mobile Food Hub will work on a referral system to ensure those accessing the service are in genuine need of food relief and the food relief efforts are going where they are most needed.

Referral agencies will offer a voucher to clients where they pay for the food on the client’s behalf or offer a voucher where the client can pay reduced rates for the food themselves.
Clients will be able to access free food weekly or if they pay for it themselves up to 10 times over a six month period.
You will need a referral to access the Food Hub service, please contact one of the agencies below to see if you are eligible for a referral voucher. St Vincent de Paul – Pt Lincoln 8682 5991
Australian Red Cross – Port Lincoln 6557 1250
One Heart Care - 86831020
PLACC - 8682 6677
Workskil Australia - 7624 8200
Salvation Army - 8682 1609
Baptist Church - 76268012
DHS - 0409 300 531
Centacare Catholic Country SA Limited - 8683 0733
West Coast Youth & Community Support - 8683 0072
CBS Inc - 8682 6937
Once the service has commenced the location, date and time the Mobile Food Hub will be in Tumby Bay will be available from these agencies. At this stage it is expected the Food Hub will visit Tumby Bay once a fortnight.
If you wish to be a volunteer with Foodbank SA please contact Brigette Blanch, telephone 8351 1136 or email office.volunteer@foodbanksa.org.au.
