FESTIVALS
Link-Up (Qld) staff members attend festivals and events to promote Link-Up services to the general public and to make aware the circumstances surrounding the Stolen Generation.
THE DREAMING FESTIVAL
Link-Up (Qld) made representation at the Dreaming Festival, Woodford to give out information on our services and to talk with and meet with a wider community. This year we also had representatives from The Kimberley Stolen Generations Link-Up service out of Broome W.A. who also assisted us throughout the long weekend. A lot of interest was generated from people visiting from other countries including Germany, Italy, Israel, Jamaica, Eygpt and France. Most had seen Mr Kevin Rudd's Apology on their countries' TV news services and were sympathetic to the plight of the Stolen Generations.

HEALTH CHECK DAYS
Link-Up (Qld) staff members attended Health Check Days in Bundaberg hosted by Indigenous Health Services, Bundaberg Hospital and in Maroochydore and Gympie hosted by the North Coast Aboriginal Corporation for Community Health (NCACCH). Staff manned information stalls promoting Link-Up services and networking with other Indigenous and non Indigenous organisations. The days provided immunisation for the flu as well as other general health checks.
