Connect You Too – Christmas hours

Connect You Too (Connectu2) has been busy helping the community get out and about during November 2022.

In November 2022, we did a total of 2162 trips with a total of 98,452 service kms. Our popular destinations included 53 trips to Ballina; 120 trips to Coffs Harbour; 27 trips to the Gold Coast; 329 trips to Grafton; 129 trips to Lismore and 397 trips to the Yamba/Maclean area.

We managed to get the community to 1039 Specialist and GP appointments; 185 Hospital visits (Day Surgery drop off/pick-up); 214 social trips & 557 shopping trips.

Our Meals on Wheels service based in Iluka delivered 654 meals and 298 desserts during November 2022. We were able to do welfare checks, have a quick chat and help our customers see a friendly face (even with our masks on).

If you need help with transport or meals, call Connect You Too at Townsend on 6645 3200 to see if you qualify for any subsidies or assistance. Also, don’t forget to log onto our website and investigate all that is offered – www.connectu2.org.au
