Community Carers and Responders - Byron, Grafton, Murwillumbah and Shedding
This weekend, our Byron Community Carers & Responders (CCR) participants will complete their final step — First Aid training with Pacific Coast First Aid, our fantastic local provider. We’re so proud of this group and the energy they’ve brought to the program.
The feedback from the Byron cohort has been incredibly positive, with many people highlighting how much they enjoyed the role plays, scenarios and hands-on activities:
“Very accessible presentation and discussion of topics. Excellent power point resource, very comprehensive.”
“Very informative and practical info and experience and stories and starting connections”
“Such great knowledge in the room - amazing facilitators and participants”
A huge thank you to our dynamic facilitators — Marlena, Jean, Rena, Bobbi and Julie — who were all praised for their skill, experience and the depth they bring to the CCR program.
If you’d like to join the CCR community, we have FREE training coming up in Grafton and Murwillumbah in February 2026, plus a special program for the Mullumbimby Shedding community in February/March. Kyogle dates are on the way, and we’ll have several more opportunities available right through to June 2026.
