Council will advocate for aged care services in the municipality to be transitioned to local service providers, namely Grampians Community Health and East Wimmera Health Service, following a decision made at the July council meeting in Stawell. There are no immediate changes to any services for current clients and no action required for now.
February 20 is Love Your Pet Day. Our animal companions walk beside us through all seasons of life. They offer comfort, loyalty, humour, and unconditional presence. February 20 is a beautiful reminder to pause, connect, and return that love in a way they understand. Whether it’s an extra cuddle, a quiet moment together, a long walk, or simply being fully present, your pet feels your intention.
In honour of pets everywhere and the people who love them, Noelene from Heart Centred Reiki will be at Cato Park on Friday 20 February to offer mini pet reiki sessions to all pets between 7am and 9am and between 3pm and 6pm. Take this opportunity to offer your pet a Reiki to thank and celebrate them. Find Noelene on the day on a seat facing the lake in front of the smaller playground in front of Florence Street. Contact Noelene at reiki@heartcentredreiki.com.au for more information. Please note the event will be cancelled in the event of a catastrophic fire day rating.
