CLUBHOUSE OUTINGS The reintroduction of clubhouse outings was a huge hit last month. We visited the Wollongong Botanical Gardens to see the sculptures and met up with some of the West St group. We enjoyed a visit to West St for their Recovery Day, where members shared their stories and enjoyed a lovely day of crafts, tennis, lunch and much more. Berry was next on the list with a visit to the gorgeous historical town and some of its iconic landmarks. Feedback from members was very positive so we hope we can keep these going...Watch this space! BERRY WEST ST BOTANICAL GARDENS
