Swansea Community Cottage BBQ

Swansea Community Cottage is holding a free community BBQ on Monday the 25th of July from 11am.

Have you ever wondered what The Cottage does and how we may be able to help you?Come along and find out what service/programs we have as we raise awareness of gambling harm and what supports are available.

The morning will be facilitated by a local gambling counsellor and aims to increase understanding of the risks of gambling harms and where we can get support for ourselves or those we care about. The session will also be attended by a Lived Experience Spokesperson who will share their insights and experiences of gambling harms and journey of recovery.

To book in, call the Community Cottage on 4971 1229.
