In support of World Down Syndrome Day and the Lots of Socks Campaign, the team at Yarrawonga Health will be joining in by wearing bright, fun and mismatched socks.

The Lots of Socks campaign is a simple but powerful way to spark conversations. Chromosomes are shaped a little like socks, and on 21/3 we recognise the three copies of chromosome 21 that people with Down syndrome have. It’s a fun way to raise awareness, celebrate differences, and promote inclusion.

This year, March 21 falls on a Saturday, so we’ll be celebrating in the workplace on Monday 23rd March. Staff are encouraged to wear their craziest socks and help start conversations that support understanding and inclusion.

This day is especially meaningful for our team as we celebrate and support our colleague Liv and her son Archie, along with all individuals and families living with Down syndrome in our community.

We’d love to see your socks too! If you’re joining in, snap a photo and share it on socials to help spread the message.

At Yarrawonga Health, community is at the heart of everything we do — and that spirit shines brightly through our incredible volunteers.

We warmly welcome our latest Palliative Care Volunteer inductees — Dale, Helen, Val, Debbie, Ken, Margi, Judi and Leonie — who have recently completed specialised palliative care training to support individuals and families during end-of-life care.

Across three dedicated sessions, our volunteers undertook training based on the Palliative Care Victoria modules, delivered by YH Nurse Practitioner Kevin Clemente in partnership with NCN Health for Moira Palliative Care.

This training strengthens their skills, deepens their knowledge, and builds confidence — ensuring they can provide compassionate, informed, and respectful support during some of life’s most vulnerable moments.

Volunteering in palliative care is a profound act of generosity. It is about presence, empathy, dignity, and human connection.

Thank you, Dale, Helen, Val, Debbie, Ken, Margi, Judi and Leonie — your commitment to walking alongside members of our community at such an important time is deeply valued
