Occupy Sydney 24/7 Homeless Support.

  Sydneys First and Australias only known 24 hour 7 day Homeless Resource Centre is now fully operational.
The Occupy Sydney Homeless and Hungry Field Kitchen & Freestore is now in full swing at the 600 plus day old Occupy Sydney Occupation in Martin Place (corner of Elizabeth St.
  There is always a FREE hot drink and usually a hearty soup available 24 hours a day. Other donated food is distributed immediately it arrives. Bakery, shop end of shelf life food and fruit are available as they arrive. More is needed and welcome.

  The Occupy Sydney 24/7 Homeless & Hungry Field kitchen is 100% crowd funded and resourced.
A meeting will be held 2pm Saturday 21 July at the Occupation to open a discussion about ending homelessness.
