Resilience Workshop

A big thank you to Susan Johnson for conducting a resilience workshop at our June meeting.
Susan is a psychologist and her contact phone number is 0429 644 628.
She practices in Goyder Street, Narrabundah and after hours appointments are available.

The workshop on 6 June was entitled "Resilience for people with Chronic Illness".
I have a couple of extra handouts for any members that could not come.
