New crisis centre for Warwick Sue Campbell Guest Contributor
O
ver the past six months, the Warwick Uniting Church community have prayed, planned, visited and discussed the establishment of a crisis centre for women in our community. Together with the Women’s Advocacy Action Team, as a
church they have brought this wonderful program one step closer to fruition. On Friday 11th November, the launch of Protea Place Warwick was held at The Granary in the Dairy Precinct. A large group of community and local business representatives gathered to learn more of this wonderful support initiative that will be housed in their former manse. The CEO of Protea Place Inc
Toowoomba, Amanda Dalton, addressed the gathering, setting out the vision of the Warwick branch, the need to refurbish the building and the on-going commitment and costs of the centre when it is operational in mid 2023. In the lead up to the launch evening, it was evident from the support from the many sponsors that this project was well received by the community. Continued on page 7...

the Subway outlet side of the road to the Top Pub, locals said the woman appeared to be unstable on her feet. Others told this newspaper that the wording written on her body, allegedly with a dark felt-like marker, appeared to be a protest. Most were unsure as to the point of the occurrence, concerned for the woman’s well being and of youngsters who might have seen more than they anticipated on their way to school. Staff of Granite Belt
Medical Services on High St helped the woman.
