The Yarraman Heritage Centre has welcomed recent vital upgrades to safety equipment at the historic complex in Millar Street.<\/p>\n

A Powerlink grant has helped the not-for-profit group buy new gardening equipment, safety gear and first aid kits for its volunteers.<\/p>\n

Other important support came locally: the Yarraman Shed donated a snake bite kit and the Yarraman Local Ambulance Committee donated a potentially life-saving Automated External Defibrillator (AED).<\/p>\n

“In the coming weeks we\u2019ll organise some community first aid and AED training, so keep an eye out for dates and come along if you can,” Yarraman Heritage Centre president Frank Hodgkinson said.<\/p>\n

“The more people who feel confident using this equipment, the better for our whole community.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A big thank you goes to the volunteers who quietly do the work behind the scenes \u2014 researching opportunities, writing the grant applications, purchasing the equipment and completing the reporting afterwards. These efforts make a real difference and help ensure the Heritage Centre remains a safe, well-run and welcoming place for everyone.<\/p>\n

“Thanks again to everyone who contributes their time and energy to preserving our history and keeping our centre available for the community to gather in.<\/p>\n

“If you aren\u2019t volunteering already and want to get involved, we\u2019d love to hear from you.”<\/p>\n
