FEDERAL MEMBER FOR NEWCASTLE SHARON CLAYDON SAID:
I have met too many families in our community who are in crisis and in need of a helping hand. The Morrison Governments cruel cuts put services that support vulnerable people at risk.
The Muloobinba Aboriginal Corporation and the Samaritans Foundation of Newcastle provide essential services to our community. Only Labor can make sure theyre properly funded to keep doing this important work.
