Goodna 10th anniversary celebration

On Saturday, 7 December we celebrated our 10th anniversary with aa beautiful Community Day put on by our staff and the West Moreton Deadly Choices team.  

Despite the blistering heat, we were joined by Mob who came down from all over to celebrate with staff and tour the brand-new wing of the Goodna Clinic. This brought excitement to our regulars, some who have been attending the clinic since it opened in 2014. Plus, Deadly Choices Ambassador and NRL legend, Willie Tonga mingled with all and enjoyed the day celebrating Goodna.  

Marquees were set up to ensure our Elders were sun safe, along with jarjum who ran straight to the Deadly Kindies tent. The West Moreton Deadly Choices team played a huge role with Mob participating in tobacco surveys to win a Deadly Choices prize. The team also put on a barbeque and ensured everyone was staying hydrated and out of the sun. 

Thank you to our amazing staff for a deadly 10 years of dedicated health and wellbeing services for Mob.  

Thank you to everyone who came out and made this celebration so special!
