The best time to prepare for thunderstorm asthma is before the storms arrive.

If you have asthma, there are a few simple things you can do to help reduce your risk:

- Use your preventer inhaler as prescribed
- Make sure your Asthma Action Plan is up-to-date
- Keep your hay fever under control

Good asthma management throughout the year can help reduce your risk of thunderstorm asthma.

Take a few minutes to get prepared now, so you're ready when the weather changes.

✂️ What a deadly Community Day!

Thank you to everyone who came down to our Youth Hub on Monday and made it such a great day.

It was so good to see so many families, Elders and young people out together.

A massive thank you to Walkabout Barber for rolling into Echuca and giving our community fresh cuts all day long. Having you here was something special!💈

The little ones had a ball with the Billabong Ranch petting zoo and face painting, and the BBQ lunch, coffee van and slushie van kept everyone fed, caffeinated and cool.

Big thanks to the services who set up stalls and yarned with community on the day:

And thank you to our Njernda staff who worked hard behind the scenes to pull it all together!
