Getting out into the community is a big part of what we do at Bea Care.

From appointments to social outings, we support people to stay connected, involved, and part of what’s happening around them.

We’re currently taking enquiries.

We’ve had some new faces join us recently — welcome 💚

This is what some of our days look like.
Getting out, taking things as they come, and moving at a pace that feels right.

More to come :)

Today was our second Participant Committee Meeting 💚

We sat together and talked through ideas for events — what people want more of, what they enjoy, and what they’d like to be part of.

It was a really good conversation, with lots of ideas and different perspectives.

The committee will be involved in planning and bringing these ideas to life.

We’ve been working on something new and exciting😃

We’re really excited to finally share The Social Studio 💛

It’s a Day and Evening program we’ve created for people who want more — more connection, more confidence, and more independence in everyday life.

Some of the things we already have in place include cooking together, creative sessions, community outings, and building life and work skills — with more to come as we grow.

At the heart of it, it’s about creating a space where you can show up, be yourself, and feel part of something.

🔥 Catastrophic Fire Danger Rating today - Please be prepared 🔥

Today’s conditions mean the risk of bushfire is extremely high. If you live in a bushfire risk area, leaving early is always the safest option. Understand your triggers for leaving and don’t wait until it’s too late.

If you can’t leave, it’s important to understand your options. We’d like to remind the community that Bushfire Places of Last Resort (BPLR) and Emergency Relief Centres (ERC) are very different.

Bushfire Places of Last Resort (BPLR) should only be used as a last resort if your plan fails, not a relocation point when leaving early. Bushfire Places of Last Resort are selected and audited in conjunction with the CFA and their rules and regulations, not all open spaces can be considered Bushfire Places of Last Resort.

BPLRs are designated open spaces that intend to reduce radiant heat exposure, but people may still be exposed to smoke, heat and embers. There are also no staff or emergency services at these locations.

🔗 Full list of BPLR locations: https://go.bendigo.vic.gov.au/BPLR

Emergency Relief Centres will only open in our region as directed and locations will be communicated at the time. If activated, these locations will have resources and staff to assist the community.

You can stay informed with updates from trusted resources like VicEmergency, CFA and SES through the City’s Emergency Dashboard, which includes:

• Real-time warnings and weather updates
• Road closures and community alerts
• Emergency Relief Centres (when activated)
• Bushfire Places of Last Resort
• Easy links to preparedness and recovery resources
• Mobile-friendly design for quick access on your phone
