Queensland’s unsung heroes recognised during International Year of Health and Care Workers
Anglicare Southern Queensland has marked International Year of Health and Care Workers by recognising the achievements of staff and volunteers who provide vital support for vulnerable Queenslanders.
More than 200 staff members, volunteers and clients gathered at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre recently for the not-for-profit charity’s inaugural Excellence Awards.
Anglicare SQ’s Executive Director Karen Crouch said it was important for people working in the health and community services sector to recognise the contributions they make in our local communities.
“As a provider of essential care and support services for vulnerable people, our work never stops. We are all so focused on the needs of our clients, residents, children and families, that reflecting on our own achievements is often not top of mind,” Ms Crouch said.
Anglicare Calls on Government to Tackle Housing Affordability
Anglicare s annual report into housing affordability paints a dire picture of life for those on low incomes and welfare.
Anglicare Southern Queensland’s annual Rental Affordability Snapshot has again illuminated the dire situation facing people on low incomes in Greater Brisbane.
The not-for-profit community services organisation is now calling on the Federal Government to take immediate action in next month’s Budget to tackle housing affordability.
Anglicare SQ Executive Director Karen Crouch said South East Queensland’s tight rental market, combined with COVID-19-related job losses and the recent reduction of government support for job seekers, was sending more people spiralling into poverty and towards homelessness.
