Gov’t grant boosts services at Junction 142 - from the Rotary Club of Upper Blue Mountains
From the newsletter of the Rotary Club of Upper Blue Mountains
A recent $50,000 Community Grant from the NSW government has been of great assistance to Junction 142, the Katoomba-based community service provider. Junction 142 provides services to homeless, and those in need, and in recent months has been able to expand its services for the first post-Covid. Manager Stephen Bradley says: “Our expansion has also been due to great community support and consistant fundraising.” “This scenario has led to an expansion of the free shower and laundry service from three to four days per week, now including Tuesdays, which coincides with Junction 142’s Open Table food services. “The Open Table continues to provide a hot breakfast and food hamper service on Tuesdays and Thursdays, supporting approximately 35 people at each sitting. It also acts as an important social hub where people can meet, socialise, and exchange information. “A major development for Junction 142 has been our hosting of the Link Wentworth organised Community Hub, which takes place in the Junction 142 Church, the first Tuesday of every month.
