Shoulder 2 Shoulder
A program designed to help those on in need, our homeless community of NSW. Shoulder 2 Shoulder is listening to them when they have no one to talk with. MBLA volunteers, lead by Director Mr Nil Nair, has in 2020 visited more then 23 boarding homes and shelters and counselled more then 116 people in need of “just a conversation”, to be reassured that life is OK and we care. One of the biggest challengers we in NSW have faced in COVID 2020, has been the loneliness and being isolation. This effect has never been the mostly felt in the homeless community of NSW and has never been greater in the homeless community.
The volunteers with experience in counselling are coming together on this project, headed by Director, Nil Nair . “loneliness is the birth of many disease including depression and mental illness, which effects the young, old, men, women and all ethnicity!” Together we are able to tackle this at it’s roots. In 2020 we have reached more then 116 induvial and looking to increase that in 2021, with you help. Yes, It is changing lives!
