Gunbalanya Community Care clients visit Darwin

27 April 2018

Gunbalanya Community Care Clients spent a week in the big smoke with a trip to Darwin recently.
NT Carers in Darwin provided their Respite House in Anula for some of our Aged Care Clients from Gunbalanya to have time away from their community and to experience something different. 
This allowed their carers to also have a break with a well-earned rest and a week’s respite.
Gunbalanya Community Care Officer Barbara Gurwalwal accompanied the four women and enjoyed sharing the city experience with them.
The NT Carers team also provided extra support staff to assist the ladies during their stay.  
The women spent their time with a shopping spree, a trip to the Crocosaurus Cove to meet the crocodiles (a bit scary), a hospital visit to visit family and also went to Durrak Community Centre where they enjoyed learning new skills including sewing and making bags. 
A big thank you to NT Carers as it was a huge effort to arrange everything and the ladies really enjoyed their time away.
