Fundraiser Morning Tea

18th June 2023Morning Tea Fundraiser to support Rosies for the Homeless

Hello all members and visitors,
Can you imagine what it would be like if no one had said your name or looked you in the eye in the last three months?
Unfortunately this is something that many people who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or socially isolated experience.
It is the mission of Rosies to ensure that no Queenslander feels left out or disconnected from their community. Rosies aims to provide friendship and unconditional acceptance to those doing it tough with a warm smile and a hot drink.
Some of Rosies patrons even equate connection and conversation to be as important as safe accommodation and food.
The stress that comes with homelessness or being at risk of homelessness also increases the risk of mental illness. You’d be surprised what a difference a simple chat and basic hospitality can do to impact an individual’s mental health and physical wellbeing.

Rosies reaches out to those most in need, people who are homeless or at risk, lonely, and socially isolated within our communities.”

When: Sunday 18 June 2023  at the Dutch Club (123 Pine Road, Richlands QLD 4077) at 10am.

Bring a plate… for those who are not familiar with the saying, this is a plate with something nice to share.

Slag om de Javazee 2023

Slag om de Javazee 2023

Op Zondag 26 Februari vanaf 10u in de Dutch Club NAQ herdenken wij de Slag in de Java zee.

De ceremony begint om 11u.

De slag, die 81 jaar geleden begon, verliep desastreus voor de geallieerden, 2.000 marinemensen kwamen om, grotendeels (Indische-)Nederlanders, en de weg lag vrij voor Japan om heel Nederlands-Indië te veroveren.

$10 toegang, incl een lichte lunch

 

On Sunday 26 February from 10 am at the Dutch Club NAQ we commemorate the Battle of the Java Sea.

The ceremony starts at 11:00 am.

The battle, which started exactly 80 years ago, was disastrous for the Allies, 2,000 naval men were killed, mostly (Indonesian) Dutch, and the way was clear for Japan to conquer the whole of the Dutch East Indies.
