Yesterday, it was revealed that Gayundah Arboretum Park in Woody Point would be closed, forcing 13 people experiencing homelessness to find new shelter. 

The homelessness crisis is impacting the most vulnerable people in the community, with domestic violence victims being rehoused in tents.

Project Manager at Defenders for Hope, Kathy Smith, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive that domestic violence victims are among those living in tents in Logan.

“We work with the housing, the local council, and YFS…and we supply them with new tents when the storm comes through, we supply them with food every day,” Ms Smith said.
