With many of our regional communities set to experience very hot temperatures over the next few days, local Code Red weather plans will be activated from Sunday 10 January 2021 to Thursday 14 January 2021 in the following regions:

• Clare
• Port Augusta
• Riverland
• Murray Bridge.

We're busy working in partnership with our homelessness service providers to ensure additional accommodation and support is available to keep the most vulnerable in our community cool, hydrated and out of the heat.

The Homeless Connect SA service will continue to operate 24 hours, 7 days a week to connect people in crisis to advice, services and emergency accommodation.

Anyone who is experiencing or at risk of homelessness is encouraged to call Homeless Connect SA on 1800 003 308 at any time, wherever you are in South Australia.

Please take care yourself and check in family members and friends, particularly those who may be more vulnerable during periods of hot weather.

Thank you to our homelessness service providers for supporting those who need our help during this severe heat.
