Co.As.It. Extends Support to Community Following Bondi Tragedy
Co.As.It. expresses its deepest sorrow and condolences to all those affected by the tragic incident that occurred in Bondi on Sunday 14 December. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the wider community during this profoundly distressing time.
Acts of violence have a deep and lasting impact, not only on those directly affected, but on families, friends, and communities who may be experiencing shock, grief, fear, or emotional distress. At times like this, it is vital that individuals know they are not alone, and that support is available.
The Consul General of Italy in Sydney, with the support of Co.As.It., has extended counselling services to community members who may need professional support in the aftermath of this tragedy.
Co.As.It. stands in solidarity with the Bondi community and all those affected. We remain committed to supporting community wellbeing and fostering compassion, care, and resilience in times of adversity.
