Each Winter, on any night across Victoria around 1,100 homeless
people including women, children, young and older people and people with
disabilities have to “sleep rough” in city parks, car parks, bushland
areas and coastal reserves. Our upcoming parish forum, 'Homelessness:
Preparing for 2020' on
Tuesday 24 September 2019 will bring
together people to begin to prepare for next Winter, and to make the
connections with other parishes, churches and groups that will make next
year’s Winter Shelter a success in as many areas as can be reached.
