WERN (Western Emergency Relief Network), which is located in Footscray, is being forced out of their current premises. The organisers are now desperately searching for a suitable building with around 500 square metres to act as their warehouse, preferably in a central location such as Sunshine West or Derrimut. If anyone knows of any available property, please let Joe Cumbo know.
They are also planning a working bee at the Cross Street site on 23rd February from 9:30 am till 1 pm to commence packing because they have to vacate the premises by early March.
Last year, the community within Wyndham was the largest benefactor from WERN . So, helping WERN is helping our community.
