🩻November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month 🩻

Meet Heath, one of our own here at SWAMS, he has worked on this national campaign to share why lung cancer screening matters - for your health, your mob, and your future.

Early detection can save lives.

If you're over 50 and have a history of smoking, you may be eligible for a free, simple, and potentially life-saving lung check.

Free call 1800 779 000, visit your local SWAMS Clinic or check out this website for more information: https://www.health.gov.au/our-work/nlcsp/first-nations

Let’s look after our lungs, together.

Celebrating Culture, Connection & Community – NAIDOC Elders Luncheon in Bindjareb 🖤💛❤️

On Thursday 23rd October, we wrapped up our final NAIDOC Elders Community Luncheon in Bindjareb, and what a deadly way to close the series!

The day was filled with laughter, storytelling, shared meals, and deep connection, honouring the wisdom and strength of our Elders.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, supported the event, and helped create such a moorditj celebration. 🙌

A big shout out to our Bindjareb Aged Care Team for organising the event!

🥈 Bindjareb Elders Shine at the Aged Care Games!

Earlier this week, our deadly Bindjareb Elders took part in the SRCWA LiveLighter Aged Care Games at the Murray Aquatic and Leisure Centre - and proudly came away with 2nd place!

The day was filled with laughter, music, and friendly competition, bringing together seniors from across the region for a celebration of strength, spirit, and community.

We’re so proud of our Elders for representing SWAMS with heart and energy. Congratulations to all the teams who took part, and a big thank you to the organisers, volunteers, and performers who made the day so moordtij!!🖤💛❤️
