PRESIDENT’S REVIEW
It is my honour and
pleasure to present
my report for the
34th Annual General
Meeting. This year has
been full of exciting and
busy times. Our main
focus has not changed
since our inception,
and that is to offer and
design quality services
for people with a
disability, their families, their carers and the aged.
Support from our funding bodies and our
wonderful fundraising committee makes it
possible for us to offer the breadth of services that
we do. Services continue to grow every year to
meet the needs of our community.
I am grateful to all of the dedicated staff, who go
beyond their duties for positive outcomes and
enjoyable experiences for all service users.
Our volunteers are an integral part of the
organisation, they work closely with the staff for
positive outcomes for everyone. Our youngest
volunteer is 17 years of age, and our most senior
is 80 years.
We look forward to the future introduction of the
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
The changes will result in more autonomy for
our service users and we hope greater levels of
support. I am sure we are in a good position to
manage the forthcoming changes.
The opening of No 4 and with the Minor Street
project very much under way, we are broadening
opportunities and choices for the community.
CLRS is saying farewell to two valued Board
Members, Fran Galvin and Ann Bennett who
have more than 60 years of combined service to
CLRS. Both Fran and Ann have been exceptional
supporters of the organisation. Their experience
and wisdom has been instrumental in the
development of services, and their commitment
to people with a disability and their families has
always been paramount.
Thank you to our Board of Management for
their ongoing advice, commitment, counsel and
innovation and welcome aboard our new board
members.
The management team is always very busy
with organisational planning and the daily
operations, which form a significant part of their
responsibilities.
My term as President draws to a close, a role
I have enjoyed immensely. It has been very
gratifying to see the professionalism and growth of
CLRS. I would to like to thank our members, staff
and supporters for their valuable contribution. I
am confident of the future for CLRS and believe we
are well placed as a preferred provider of disability
services in our community.
A big thank you to Suzanna Barry our CEO for her
ongoing vision, support, planning and day to day
management and appreciation for her very diligent
team.

it is rewarding.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REVIEW
This Annual Report
marks the end of the
34th year of Community
Living & Respite
Services Inc. (CLRS)
providing services to
our community. The
year has been busy
and there have been
some outstanding
achievements.
In August 2012 we
held an Expo of our
services, and invited those who we support and their
families, along with associated providers to give
us feedback on what services they felt we should
provide. From this feedback the organisation took
the step of entering into a lease of new premises at 4
Percy Street Echuca. The opening of this new venue,
right at the end of June was a fantastic end to the
year. With the building overflowing with community
members, including the people we support and
their families, associated providers and funding
representatives, this new initiative was endorsed as
a wonderful resource for the whole community. The
partnership with the Tuesday Junction Art Group
and Echuca Moama Arts Initiative (EMAI) enabled us
to open “number 4” with a stunning art exhibition.
Their contribution to this significant event was
greatly appreciated.
CLRS has now commenced community activities at
“number 4” and we will be building our innovative
programs to ensure that services are available that
meet the needs of our service users into the future.
In November 2012 we received registration under
the Department of Human Services Standards,
confirming that high quality services are being
provided by CLRS to individuals and families in our
community. As an organisation we are committed
to continuously improving, and listening to the
voice of the people we support. The leadership of
Diane Symons in assisting CLRS to prepare for
the accreditation process greatly contributed to a
successful outcome.
The Minor Street project has progressed this year.
With two very successful fundraising events and
support from philantrophic trusts, the organisation
is now in a position to proceed. It is hoped that
building will commence later in 2013, and that the
project will be near completion this time next year.
A concerted effort will be made over the next twelve
months to raise more funds for the project.
In May 2013 CLRS received the SCOPE
Communication Access Symbol, the newest access
symbol in Australia. Communication Access is about
communicating with people who do not use speech
or have speech that is difficult to understand.
CLRS was assessed by SCOPE and both the CLRS
reception and Alexander House were awarded
the symbol. It is estimated that 1 in 500 people in
Victoria require communication aids and strategies
for successful communication. Our organisation has
been the first organisation in the Loddon-Mallee
region to be recognised for communication access.
Over the past year CLRS has been working closely
with local organisations, including increased
collaboration with Echuca Regional Health and
Echuca Community for the Aged. Our partnerships
with local organisations and networks are vital to
ensure that we are connected to the community
and assist us to increase positive outcomes for our
service users.
The CLRS Board of Management has continued their
proactive approach this past year. The leadership of
President Jan Rankin and the CLRS Board Members
has assisted the organisation to further develop
and respond to the needs of our community. Jan’s
personal support and strong commitment to CLRS
has been greatly appreciated.
CLRS is also fortunate to have a dedicated staff
team. The General Manager, Team Leaders,
Coordinators, House Managers, Administration Staff
all support a magnificent team of Disability Support
Professionals whose focus is to provide quality,
flexible and individualised services. I would like to
express my appreciation to the entire CLRS team
that has enabled CLRS to have another successful
year.

GENERAL MANAGER’S REVIEW
Once again it is time
to reflect on the year
gone by. 2012/2013
was a time of
continued growth and
innovation. So many
events, activities and
partnerships have
occurred and it is now
we look back and say
“wow” that was a great
year.
Relationships continue to be the basis of
everything CLRS does. Relationships with
service users, families, carers, staff, volunteers,
stakeholders and other organisations all interact
to enhance the culture of the organisation.
As CLRS continues to grow, it is important to
nurture and support these relationships. Effective
communication ensures that there is sharing of
accurate information, to benefit the people we
support.
Staff are one of the great things that make CLRS
unique. CLRS is a dynamic organisation that aims
to provide high quality supports that are flexible
and responsive. Staff are the people that make it
happen. Training continues to be a high priority
with many opportunities provided for staff and
volunteers. Having a venue at “number 4“ that can
be utilised for training will be a fabulous asset.
At the end of this financial year CLRS employed
165 people. The number of staff has remained
stable which is a testament to the culture of the
organisation. There has been an increased ratio of
permanent to casual staff.
165 staff
employed
at CLRS
Staff wellbeing has been a focus this year with
staff being invited to health checks, movie nights,
Christmas lunch at the Echuca hotel and updates
to involve all staff and encourage feedback
about the organisations activities. Staff are
reminded what it means to work for CLRS and the
importance of keeping the service users central to
everything that is provided. Service users are the
fundamental reason why CLRS exists. Listening
and aiming to provide the best high quality service
is the key for future developments.
I would like to congratulate the following staff who
completed studies and graduated in 2013.
Certificate III in Business, Jeffrey Bray
Certificate III in Disability, Wayne Joseph
Certificate III in Aged Care/Certificate III in HACC,
Tracey Breed and Donna Juster
Certificate IV in Disability, Kathryn Cairns and
Kym Mundie.
Congratulations to Kym who also achieved the
Kyabram Community & Learning Centre Award for
Excellence.
Thank you to all involved with CLRS who support
and share our goals and core values. The
continued input and dedication of our staff will
ensure the ongoing success of CLRS.

McNulty
Community Living & Respite Services
Inc. (CLRS) was part of a successful
tender to deliver the Campaspe Murray
Healthy Communities Initiative. This
enabled CLRS to establish the “Healthy
Habits” Community Kitchen and the
Healthy Eating Activity & Lifestyle (HEAL)
Program. These programs are the first
of the CLRS “community activities” and
have been a highlight to the participants.
It has been wonderful to work
collaboratively with health professionals
and to observe the growth in confidence
and skills of all participants.
CLRS was delighted to welcome Leah
McNulty to the team as Family Services
Team Leader. Leah has brought a diverse
range of skills to the organisation and
assisted with the coordination and
development of “number 4”.
Xmas
Party
Welcome
In November 2012 CLRS successfully
completed the Department of Human
Services (DHS) Standards Audit, and
the ISO9001:2008 certification. Our new
registration with DHS is for a 3 year
period. Thanks to Diane Symons who
successfully coordinated this process,
and to the staff team who assisted.
A number of families and service users
also participated and their contribution
was greatly appreciated.
Just prior to Christmas the year was
celebrated at the Service User & Family
Christmas Party at the Kyabram Club.
Over 100 people attended and for some
it was the highlight of their year. Staff
member Leeanne Carland led a sing
along with some Christmas favourites,
accompanied by her guitar.
The first CLRS Expo was held on August
29, 2012. This event was a highlight for
the CLRS coordinators who were very
proud to showcase the vast range of
quality services that are provided to the
community. Feedback was sought from
attendees of the expo, and from the
feedback provided and the results of the
Annual Service User Survey the CLRS
Board of Management endorsed a plan
to expand services. This resulted in the
opening of “number 4” later in the year
– a new initiative implemented in direct
response of listening to our service users.

CLRS welcomed new Board of
Management member Renee Oberin
in November 2012, following a casual
vacancy and an assessment of the
skills needed for the Board.

The Annual General Meeting held in
October 2012 was one of the highlights of
the year. The panel presentation of the
various people involved with the Rockets
was outstanding. It was at the AGM that
Brendan Hogan was welcomed to the
Board of Management. Jim Cosgriff,
Fran Galvin and Greg Harris were
re-elected for a further term of three years.
CLRS was proud to support the
“Rockets” and with assistance from
the Department of Human Services
transport to Etihad was arranged for the
Rockets. The photos of this day show
how much this day was enjoyed by all.
The new CLRS website was released in
September 2013. Thank you to Moama
RSL and Moama Bowling Club who
assisted with funding for this project. The
website is modern and is more accessible
and friendly for people with a disability,
sponsors and supporters. A highlight
of the website is the testimonials from
service users, supporters and staff.

A Bunnings BBQ marked the first
event for 2013. Lynne and Brian Wild,
assisted by dedicated volunteers cooked
sausages and sold drinks on possibly the
hottest day in January. This successful
fundraising event raised funds to assist
with the set up costs at 4 Percy Street.
The 7th Annual Fundraising Dinner was held on
February 26, 2013 and raised the record amount
of $70,500 for the Minor Street project. Raymond
Crowe entertained 286 guests. The support of
the Moama Bowling Club as the Event sponsor
greatly contributed to the outstanding result.
The generous support of Major Sponsors Amcal
Echuca, Fish Bite, Elmore Lockington Rochester
Community Bank, Fonterra Echuca, the Riverine
Herald & Bella Casa Houseboats, along with
Corporate Table Sponsors, General Sponsors
and Donors was greatly appreciated and
contributed to the outstanding success. Thank
you to all supporters and staff who also showed
their support by attending and to the volunteer
Fundraising Committee who coordinated a first
class event.
The year ended on a high, with an exciting time
planning for the Rock Stars Disco. It all came
to fruition on Friday 28th June 2013. “number
4” was ready for all the Disco Divas to dance
the night away. With the DJ’s pumping out the
music, a fun time was had by all the guests.
The planning group made up of volunteers, staff
and service users ensured the night was a huge
success. What better way for everyone to finish
off the financial year!

World Down Syndrome day was celebrated

Minor St
Project
The Minor Street project progressed over the 12 months
and as the financial year drew to an end we were waiting
on the Shire of Campaspe to approve the plans. For many
of our supporters this marks an exciting time as the build
phase of the project nears. The architects Brandrick are
confident we will commence building before the end of
the calendar year. This project would not be possible
without the support of the local community, businesses
and philanthrophic trust funds. A number of staff very
generously contribute fortnightly to the CLRS Workplace
Giving program, with $7,576 donated towards the Minor
Street project from this program. We hope that other
businesses may join the Workplace Giving program,
knowing that any contribution large or small will make a
lasting difference.
Autism
Awareness
Month
Anzac Day was a special occasion, with
service users participated in the Anzac
day celebrations. Andrew Guy and Neville
Newman paid their respect by laying
a wreath on behalf of CLRS. Back at
Mitchell Street their housemates made
Anzac biscuits for all to enjoy.
Anzac
Day
Autism Awareness Month is celebrated
each April. This year the Shire of
Campaspe became involved and promoted
the theme of “Light up Blue”. The tree
on the corner of Hare and Pakenham
Street was lit up blue. SPOCAAS, who
support parents of children with Autism
and Asperger’s syndrome, held a street
stall on April 13 to raise awareness in
the community. A family from Cohuna
also raised funds by holding a bbq at
Kerang Safeway. This support has been
appreciated by SPOCAAS.
Volunteer week is an important week
to recognised the valued contribution
of the CLRS volunteers. This was
celebrated with a morning tea and
presentation in appreciation of the
wonderful contribution volunteers
make to CLRS and the community.
Volunteer
Week
The official opening of “number 4” and the Community Art
Exhibition on 21st June 2013 was a wonderful event, and so well
attended that there was standing room only. Over 200 guests,
supporters and members of the community were invited to
celebrate the launch of this wonderful community space. Silent
Voices, a Murray Human Services choir, captivated the audience
and a magnificent morning tea was provided. The Community
Art Exhibition was held for 3 days and was very well attended
with visitors from all over Victoria enjoying the work of our local
artists. The Tuesday Junction artists transformed the community
space into a splendid gallery featuring pieces by local artists.
Derek DeVrieze from bankmecu opened the “bankmecu room”
which will be used for training, meetings and other community
events. State Trustees representatives from the Elsie Murray
Trust travelled from Melbourne and Bendigo to open the Elsie
Murray Room. The attendance of staff from the Department of
Human Services and Ageing, Disability and Home Care (NSW)
was appreciated. This wonderful venue is an inclusive space for
all members of our community and we look forward to reporting
next year about the varied use of “number 4”.
Number 4
Opening
New
Venue
After many months of planning and negotiation,
the new venue for community activities was
ready. The pamphlet delivery program moved
from its temporary locations at Alexander and
Bowen House to “number 4”. The support of
the community was again overwhelming. CLRS
was very grateful of the support of the Moama
RSL who enabled CLRS to purchase computer
equipment and arrange the installation of the
necessary information technology infrastructure.
The Sidney Myer Fund, along with the Elsie
Murray Trust, the Shire of Campaspe (community
grants program) and Ageing Disability and Home
Care assisted with the purchase of a Toyota
Hiace Bus, that will be shared by “number 4” and
Waratah House.

Community Living & Respite
Services Inc. acknowledges
the support of the Victorian
Government.
FUNDRAISING 2012 - 2013
Community Living & Respite Services Inc. (CLRS) continues to be a leader in the fundraising stakes by being
proactive in raising additional funds for projects and programs. The success of the fundraising endeavours has
enabled us to progress the Minor Street project to be ready for the build phase to commence late in 2013.
On November 18, 2012, 180 guests attended the annual “Greek Luncheon” in Richmond, Melbourne. The generous
support from the Melbourne community and our local Echuca/Moama businesses, together with all attendees
embraced the Greek Luncheon, and assisted us to raise $20,000 for the Minor Street project.
Our major fundraiser, 7th Annual Fundraising Dinner was held on Tuesday February 26, 2013. Oh, what a night!
A record $70,800 was raised for the Minor Street Project. Raymond Crowe entertained a sell out crowd with his
shadow puppetry, light hearted comedy and mischievous ventriloquism. The guests’ enthusiasm for ‘making a
difference’ is very much appreciated by the families and carers we support. This annual event is now a highlight on
the Echuca/Moama social calendar.
Thank you to the many sponsors who ensure the financial success of our fundraising events and especially our Event
Sponsor the Moama Bowling Club. Thank you to our Major Sponsors Amcal Echuca, Elmore/Lockington/Rochester
Community Bank, Riverine Herald, Bella Casa Houseboats, Fish Bite, Fonterra and Kinisi Live (Richmond). Please
see the full list of supporters on page 12.
The donation of the ‘Heathers Garden’ patchwork quilt was a popular 1st prize on the raffle to raise funds for
“number 4”. The community embraced this CLRS raffle knowing that their support was going to a great community
space for all members of our community to use.
Thank you to the CLRS fundraising committee members many who are volunteers who give of their time to assist
CLRS long term sustainability.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

objectives.
PHILANTHROPIC SUPPORT

the ongoing delivery of the Club Teen program, Social Skills, setup costs for “number 4” and the Minor Street
Project. This valued contribution enables the organisation to deliver high quality programs meeting vital needs of
