Today, The Kogarah Storehouse was delighted to join the Barton Bubs event, proudly hosted by Ash Ambihaipahar MP, bringing together local families, parents, carers, and a range of community organisations dedicated to supporting children and their families.

It was wonderful to connect with so many parents and little ones throughout the day. Our team enjoyed sharing information, playing interactive games, and creating meaningful conversations with families about the services and support available in our community.

We were also excited to introduce our new program, Mums and Little Ones at The Kogarah Storehouse.
This welcoming program provides an opportunity for mums and their young children to connect, learn, play, and build friendships in a supportive environment. Sessions are held on Tuesdays during Weeks 1 and 3.

If you would like to learn more about Mums and Little Ones, please contact The Kogarah Storehouse for further information.

A heartfelt thank you to Ash Ambihaipahar MP for hosting this wonderful event and to all the organisations, parents, carers, and little ones who joined us today.
Together, we are creating stronger connections and a more supportive community for families to thrive. 💙

At The Kogarah Storehouse, on 10th of June, we were pleased to host a Diabetes Prevention Information Session for the Bangladeshi community, focusing on practical ways to support healthier lifestyles and reduce the risk of diabetes.

The session was facilitated by Murad Hossain, with co-facilitation by Qanita Ahmed from NSW South Eastern Sydney Local Health District.
Participants gained valuable insights into diabetes risk factors, prevention strategies, healthy eating, and everyday habits that support long-term wellbeing.
