Rose Darling from Community Help and Togetherness (CHATS). Through ~30 volunteers, CHATS provides a Friday morning breakfast for the disadvantaged in the Port Adelaide area.

Clients number ~75, who are socially isolated and/or homeless, predominantly male.

The blankets provided from RCWL will be used in Easter Hampers together with food.

They receive good support from the Port Adelaide Enfield Council, and also food from local establishments.

CHATS is moving from corner of Dale St and Commercial Rd, to 144 Commercial Rd in the near future.

Steamtrain Bill's 30th birthday

The National Railway Museum in Port Adelaide is celebrating Bill's birthday at Semaphore on Sunday 2 April

The train will be operating on its normal run between Semaphore and Fort Glanville stations.

RCWL will be running a BBQ between 1100-1500 for those at the Foreshore.

There will also be a Fun Run for those wishing to pitch their fitness against the train!

Time to Fort Glanville is typically 20 min (~3 km), with a 5 min turnaround, and a 20 min return journey.

Environment Director Alison reached out to CHATS when she started the Blanket Revolution.

Stage I - delivered over 30 "human" blankets

Stage II - provided over 60 "human" and "pet" blankets, as many clients also have pets.
