Why

Honouring all those who have lost their lives to homelessness in parks and remote areas across Victoria.

Please wear black and bring a flower.

Our city should be a welcoming place for the most vulnerable members of our community. Our homeless friends and family should not be moved on from our city, issued with exclusion orders, and have their bedding and personal items removed. Shame on the City of Melbourne

After the vigil, we will head inside to the council meeting to witness it justify a doubling of the Community Safety Officer program, despite the program's inadequate 6-month evaluation and our petition which gathered over 800 Melbournians in opposition to it.

We hope to see you there in solidarity with all those homeless tonight across our city and our state.

We want to see some serious compassion in action from our so-called leaders. How many more people have to die before something changes?
