STROKE AWARENESS WEEK

How do you know if someone is having a stroke? Think… F.A.S.T.
On Monday – The start of National Stroke Week - Suzanne Ramsden #strokesurvivor from the, Stroke Foundation spoke to Cooroy Rotary to encourage the community to know the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech and Time) signs of stroke so that they can save a life.
The Stroke Foundation recommends the F.A.S.T. test as an easy way to remember the most common signs of stroke. Using the F.A.S.T. test involves asking these simple questions: -
Face Check their face. Has their mouth drooped?
Arms Can they lift both arms?
Speech Is their speech slurred? Do they understand you?
Time Is critical. If you see any of these signs, call 000 straight away.
Speed is essential and treatment can star the moment the medics arrive and before getting to hospital.

INTERACT CLUB  - Noosa District State High School

SLEEP ROUGH - On a very cold winter night last month students at Noosa District SHS School slept out at the school Mimburi Campus farm.
‘Sleep Rough’ is a fundraising event organised by the school Interact Rotary Club raising $4,179-30 that will go towards vital services for those experiencing homelessness.This was no fun camping adventure, with temperatures in single figures, many students said they had never been so cold in their lives and the experience provided an understanding of the condition faced by some 22,000 Queenslanders who are without a home.
Past President Bob McCrossin thanked the students and teachers who both supported and participated in Sleep Rough and acknowledged the donations given by students at the school.

A very big THANK YOU to everyone who has supported our events, activities and fundraising, all money goes to good causes and to help those in need, locally, regionally, nationally and globally
