The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong / Boon Wurrung peoples of the Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past and present. We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection they have maintained to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We accept the invitation in the Uluru Statement from the Heart and are committed to walking together to build a better future.

Heat Smart Session

Hear tips and pick up a heat health bag to stay cool, healthy and hydrated this summer.

Find out where to go to stay cool on extremely hot days, where to fill up water bottles when out-and-about and how to keep cool without air-conditioning.

Everyone will receive a free bag which includes a water bottle, cooling towel, sunscreen, Hydralyte, hand-held fan and other useful resources.

This is for anyone interested in heat health. People aged 55 plus are encouraged to attend.

The session is free and there's no need to book.
