Community Painting






We had the wonderful privilege last Friday of painting the outside of "the Allan Jackson Room" in Croydon. It is situated in the Main street where many of the guys we have developed relationship with over the past 5 years now, hangout. The front of this room was looking really shabby and the council and Croydon Safety Group wanted in cleaned up, so we put our hand up and took on the job. It was so amazing to see about 20 of our community turn up to either paint or come and have some coffee and morning tea as a community. Robyn (team leader from the Shire), was amazed at the group that turned up and said she really loved what was going on amongst us.

It is so special to be apart of a wider team, (Shire, Police, Traders, Businesses, and our little awesome community, not only helping clean up Croydon but seeing it being transformed, one by one
