The 10,000 Toes Campaign recently met with staff at Mamarapha College in Karragullen, Western Australia, to explore ways we can support the health of Indigenous Australians.
With many similarities noted with the South Pacific, we have discovered that our resources can provide valuable assistance. Exciting days are ahead, so watch this space!
