HUGS looks for new members as it's decided the group will continue

After a special general meeting to decide the future of the Hughes Unit Group Supporters (HUGS) on February 8, it was decided to continue in its current form.

Two of the committee members have now stepped down, including the group's treasurer.

HUGS is looking for a new treasurer and other committee members who have an interest in positive mental health in the local community.

The unit's beds closed in 2013.
