Come to the drop-in session and share your ideas for improving Berhampore village!

Saturday 23 March, 10am-2pm

Berhampore Community Centre, Centennial Flats, 493 Adelaide Road

The community has been saying for some time that Berhampore village needs an upgrade. This also came through in feedback we received last year as part of engaging on Newtown Connections.

Developing a safe cycling network, including a direct route from the south coast to the central city through Berhampore shopping area, creates an opportunity to make a village upgrade happen sooner.

Mosque Shame

Their feeling of safety in our peaceful land shattered and along with them, our own fear that tomorrow it could be any one of us. Evil lives amongst us.

To all the Muslims in our country who believe in peace and have lived amongst us without incident I can only share your pain and sorrow.

My deepest condolences to all who have lost friends and family not by the hands of men because real men don’t shoot the defenceless, but by the hands of COWARDS with evil hearts and guns.

Our wonderful country will never be the same. May you find strength to cope and feel peace once again. You have the love and support of the decent people that most of us are.
