For local women feeling the need for “wellness”, a Mernda woman is prescribing a dose of coffee and cake. Christine Stow launched the Mernda Support and Wellness Group for women and single mothers last week.
She says the group will meet regularly for a chat and support and advice through the network. “When you have the opportunity to share issues or problems, they seem smaller. Having a conversation over coffee and cake is not confronting.”
The group next meets at the Mernda Bakery at 10.30am on February 20 with a view to hold monthly meetings with guest speakers on financial wellness, legal matters and community issues.
