Gunning
Seniors housing
A meeting of great importance is on Monday, October 9, Gunning Courthouse 7.30pm about the future of suitable and affordable housing for independent seniors in Gunning. It would be a dark day indeed if this worthy aim, with progress made for more than six years, could not be completed whether through Gunning District Community & Health Service or a similar organisation.
Please come to this vital meeting and help find a way forward before the land is sold.
