Interrelate operates 17 centres with additional outreach programs from the majority of the centrally located centres…a significant contribution to the community.
Highlighting some current activites from three of the centres:
 Kirrawee
In celebration of National Families Week, the marketing staff at
Kirrawee headed by Julie Densley, circulated an invitation for local
schools to submit drawings with a family theme to be judged on Saturday
16th. The young artists were presented with a certificate and a
surprise gift…along with some tasty barbeque fare.
Peter Kadwell, Area Manager after the presentations has this to offer,
“We managed to escape from the gale force winds to enjoy the warmth of
the day…literally and figuratively! This was a wonderful opportunity to
give a little something back to our community.”

 Lismore
Led by the excitement from Area Managers, Julie Leete and Thea Keane, the staff of the Family Relationship and Relationship Service centres will roll their sleeves up to participate in the Annual Lismore Lantern Parade.
A tall family of our mascots, the Listener Sock Puppet Family have been transformed magically (with hours of hard work from the Lismore team) into 4-metre tall lanterns .
The Interrelate family will join the many other wonderful lanterns on the year’s most spectacular Lismore night, Saturday 20th June.
