Did you know around 56% of liver cancers worldwide are caused by hepatitis B?

Liver cancer often has few or no symptoms, which means it can be found late.

That’s why early testing and regular follow-ups matter. Managing hepatitis B can help stop it from progressing and reduce the risk of liver cancer.

💙 If you’re living with hepatitis B, regular follow-ups and staying in care help protect your long-term health.

NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING | Today’s National Day of Mourning honours the 15 innocent lives lost and all those impacted by the horrific terrorist attack at Bondi Beach last month.

The impact of this terrible antisemitic attack was felt deeply across our District. Many of our staff, patients and community members continue to feel the weight of what occurred.

We express our sincere condolences to those who lost loved ones, to those injured, to the entire Jewish community and everyone impacted by this attack.

Today is a time to pause, reflect and stand together as a community. Bondi’s Chabad community has chosen the theme: ‘Light will win, a gathering of unity and remembrance’.

All of Australia is invited to observe one-minute of silence at 7:01pm this evening. You are also encouraged to leave a candle on your doorstep or window as a symbol of remembrance, mourning and solidarity with the Jewish community.

Today, we will undertake Mitzvahs to honour those we lost, to stand with our Jewish community and to acknowledge the ongoing journey of healing. In the Jewish tradition, a Mitzvah is an act of kindness, compassion and a moral responsibility.

You can share your Mitzvahs here: https://www.nsw.gov.au/community-services/one-mitzvah-for-bondi
