Redland City Council Revamps Dog Laws for Safety!๐ŸŒŸ

The goal is to create a world where doggos and humans coexist happily and safely. Proposed changes to the laws are focused on clear guidelines, spotting dangerous dogs, and exploring limits.

Message from Cancer Council QLD

Who's ready to make a difference?

Cancer Council Qld, Redlands Volunteer Branch is throwing a fundraising breakfast bash that's all about shedding light on prostate cancer next Wednesday (September 6th) and you've got to be there.

Thing is โ€“ prostate cancer is no joke. It's the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia. Can you believe that one in six blokes could face this battle by the time they're 85? That's why this event is a must-attend! ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ

A ticket costs just $40. That's a small price to pay for the impact you'll make. Man Up and a Radiation Specialist from Icon Cancer Centre will be there to educate you and other men about prostate cancer. Plus, you could get lucky and win a prize as they're throwing in raffles & a lucky door prize to sweeten the deal.

Best part? Every single dollar raised goes straight into Cancer Council Queensland's research, support, prevention, and early detection efforts. Talk about putting your money where it counts!๐Ÿ’ช

Deadline for bookings and payments is tomorrow, Thursday. So call Jenine at 0411 724 658 or drop an email at [email protected] to secure your spot. Let's team up & show cancer who's boss๐Ÿคœ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ
