Healesville & the Yarra Valley is open for business...!!!

The bushfire crises is afffecting us all in one way or another. It's been a crazy two weeks - with not as much sleep as usual!

Lots of people have been asking, "how can we help". Well, here's the latest info from the Healesville Chamber of Commerce and Industry:

One direct way for you to help with bushfire relief is to come to the Yarra Valley and stay, eat, visit or buy something. You could also advise your friends and clients to come to the Yarra Valley as well.

You could also temporarily consider a Yarra Valley supplier of goods and services for six months.

Stay tuned to Yarravalleynow.com.au to see who is open and when, and come and support us. We don’t want to lose our remaining businesses as well.
So...you've been saying you'll come up for a coffee - now is the time to do it! Help our local businesses recover.

It has affected us as a Corps too - we closed our shop for a week to set up the material aid centre. Thats 1/52 of our income for the year gone. So, come buy up big in our Care 'n' Wear Shop!
