Cost of Surviving & Homelessness in Our Community

Cost of Surviving & Homelessness in Our Community

Registration for this event opens on 16 November 2026

Presenter: Shannan Carey

Rising costs are putting more people under pressure than ever before.

Join local St Vincent de Paul Society representative, Shannan Carey, for an insightful presentation exploring the growing challenges of cost of living and homelessness in our community and across the region.

Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how increasing pressures on housing, food and everyday expenses are affecting local individuals and families. The presentation will look at the links between cost-of-living pressures, housing insecurity and homelessness.  It will also shed light on the challenges faced by support services as they implement practical actions to support those doing it tough.

This is a fantastic opportunity to learn how we can all play a part in building a stronger, more connected community.

Registration is free but a gold coin is required to attend the session.
