NSW Health WSLHD Volunteer Manual

Acknowledgement

Western Sydney Local Health District (WSLHD) acknowledges the first people of the land. The overarching Aboriginal nation in Western Sydney is the Darug nation. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge the importance of land, water, spirit, kinship and culture, and the importance that these elements have to the health, wellbeing and future of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
