Heatwave Relief.
Over the long weekend of 9th, 10th, and 11th of March 2024, the Institute was opened to the community, as a cool place to seek relief from the heat.
Tea, coffee, cold water and Supa Doopas were on offer and the air conditioning was kept on. Volunteers from the MCA, Resilience Group, Food Pantry and Young At Heart spent an hour or two at the hall from 10am - 6pm each day.
Temperatures were at least 38 C each day.
