Georges River Life Care Centre Visit

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I recently had the opportunity to tour Georges River Life Care Centre in Peakhurst with the Member for Holsworthy and my colleague, Tina Ayyad MP. I believe they truly do integral work within our communities. We had the opportunity to tour the site and discover the work that goes into providing support and emergency relief for vulnerable individuals. It was certainly an eye-opening experience. Georges River Life Care Centre offers family violence support, emergency relief support and disability care to the community. With the rising cost of living impacting everyone, more people than ever before are turning to Georges River Life Care for help. Both Tina and I were astounded by some of the stories we heard. They truly go above and beyond for their clients, providing emotional support and direction, as well as connecting them to other important services. I would like to recognise CEO Karen Power, the rest of the board and the entire team of staff who make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most. I look forward to my next visit, hopefully very soon!
