Many people are homeless or at risk of homelessness. I have experienced homelessness myself with 3 small children, it was a horrid time and we lost everything due to my husband’s business partner, no home, no car, no money, only the clothes on our backs. It resulted in my husband never regaining his confidence, and eventually, he became very sick. The person that did the wrong thing got away with it and was never brought to justice. Yesterday the Gold Coast Homelessness Network hosted its annual Symposium at Robina titled Innovation on the Margins. A big thank you to the organising committee, dynamic speakers and everyone who attended. It was a successful day and thank you for entrusting me with the MC role. Showcasing design ideas, innovation and highlighting the fantastic programs that deliver critical services were so important. Thank you again.
