The Bruns Brekky, for homeless people, is looking for a place to set up twice a week with water, electricity and a bit of storage space, said organiser Jon Dale.
The Bruns Brekky has been operating for over ten years, providing breakfast to homeless people two days a week in conjunction with the Orange Sky van that provides mobile showers and washing facilities. The service has around 30 people using it at each session.
They were previously operating out of the Catholic Church but that space is no longer available.
‘We are just a few nice people who get up early and make some toasties and share a bit of love around,’ said Jon of himself and the other volunteers who run the program.
The Orange Sky van needs water, electricity, and drainage while the Bruns Brekky crew need a place to store their tables, coffee machine, cups and toastie machines that is easily accessible.
‘We don’t need to be inside, we just need a place to set up and store equipment between breakfasts,’ said Jon.
‘We’d love a permanent place, but we’d also be happy with a temporary spot while we keep looking for a permanent home.’
If you have a spot that you can make available to Jon and the crew to help make life a little easier for many then give Jon a call on 0402 259 209.
