After a week of supporting our local residents and business owners, the Community Crisis Centre at the Singleton Youth Venue closed at 6pm on Monday 19 June.
 
As we all continue to band together to offer ongoing support to everyone who has been impacted by the bus tragedy, Community Support Drop-In Centres will operate at the Singleton Youth Venue on Monday 26 June and the following Monday, 3 July from 9am – 6pm to support all members of the community.
 
Senior mental health clinicians will be available to anyone who would like to drop in for a face-to-face chat. It's completely normal to experience a range of emotions following a traumatic event.

 

This is going to be a difficult period over the next few weeks and months, but we want our community to know there is support available locally for your mental health and wellbeing. Please continue to take care of yourself and each other during this incredibly sad time.
