| We welcome any organisation who would like a speaker to attend and provide a presentation of the services Banksia provides.
We have presented to local Rotary Clubs, Lions Clubs, Seniors and Community Centres.
Many of these clubs are surprised as to the extent of the services Banksia provides and also of the large area Banksia covers.
As our staff and volunteers speak to any groups, the audience will hopefully become "champions" of Banksia to create awareness and much needed education throughout the community.
Our community focus is to empower our citizens to be aware of how they can others during a challenging time of their lives, to access the services of Banksia, in a timely and appropriate manner. Please refer to "How to refer a client" Heading on Main Menu.
The term, Palliative Care, is itself a difficult terminology for some people to deal with. We are endeavouring to depersonalise the subject and encourage people to ask, "what they can do for a neighbour, work colleague, friend, relative or loved one", who may not be aware of the care and support available.
Where you as a sporting, business or community organisation are interested in being informed of the services provided by Banksia, please contact our Community Liaison Coordinator Tim Paul on 94550822 or email timp@banksiapalliative.com.au |
