As put by Nat Cook
Across the state we will see severe winter weather that presents significant risk to vulnerable community members.
Rough sleepers are exposed to inclement weather, and Code Blues work to keep them sheltered, safe and warm throughout our coldest and wettest nights.
If you or someone you know is sleeping rough, please reach out to Homeless Connect SA for support.
