Acknowledgement of country Mosman Community Care proudly acknowledges the Borogegal and Cammeraigal peoples for their Country, spirit, and traditions as customary owners of the lands upon which Mosman Council operates. We extend our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging while committing to learning and listening to the stories, living cultures and practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
