Contribution to our Community
The team at McCarley & Associates recognise
that we have been blessed with the opportunity to become solicitors.
In recognition of this we wish to make, in our own small way,
contributions to the community.
Domestic Violence Court Advocacy scheme
Both George and Sara have been committee members
of the DVCAS Management Committed. They both work closely with
the Management Committee, NSW Police, Domestic Violence Liaison
Officers and other solicitors to address issues related to Domestic
Violence and AVO’s in the community.
Newcastle Variety Special Children’s
Christmas Party
Since 2006 we have sponsored the annual Special
Children’s Christmas Party. It is an event to bring fun
and the Christmas spirit to children with physical or intellectual
disabilities and kids who are terminally ill.
Surf Life Saving Australia
We make an annual contribution to SLSA in recognition
of and to assist the amazing work they do to keep our beaches
safe.
Relationship Violence Workshops
In 2007 we commenced running workshops with
local high school students on relationship violence. These workshops
were initially timed to coincide with the 16 Days of Activism
to End Violence Against Women, and are now run as requested by
the schools. These workshops are designed to assist students to
recognise the early warning signs, and empower students to take
a stand against relationship violence.
If you wish to discuss these workshops, or arrange
for one to be run at your school or community group, please call
our office.
Central Coast Community Legal Centre
Both George and Sara have been members of the
Management Committee of the Central Coast Community Legal Centre.
This organisation provides an important service on the Central
Coast, servicing those people who are ineligible for Legal Aid
assistance and cannot afford a private solicitor.
