West Torrens residents can’t wait for more Hepatitis SA learning sessions after the resoundingly successful Liver Health bingo night hosted by the City of West Torrens as part of its community connections initiative. Hepatitis SA Education Coordinator, Jenny Grant, reports:
The recent liver health education session delivered by Hepatitis SA’s Education Team in partnership with the City of West Torrens has been met with overwhelmingly positive feedback. It highlights both the community’s appetite for accessible health information and the value of engaging, interactive learning.
Held on the evening of 16 April, the session attracted 34 attendees, with 33 participants completing feedback forms on the night. The results were striking: 100 per cent of respondents reported that their knowledge of liver health had improved as a result of attending.
Participants described the session as “very informative”, “engaging”, and “fun”, with many noting the balance of clear information and interactive elements.
Activities such as trivia quizzes and bingo were particularly welcomed, seen as a way to reinforce key messages in an enjoyable way.
One attendee shared that they “learnt so much about things I didn’t know”, while another praised the session as “informative, interactive, and well presented”.
A strong theme throughout the feedback was a desire for more opportunities like this.
Importantly, the session also appeared to strengthen awareness of prevention and care. Feedback highlighted an increased understanding of liver health, including transmission and prevention of conditions such as viral hepatitis, as well as the importance of seeking both personal and medical care.
Several attendees noted that sessions like these play a critical role in raising awareness of communicable diseases and encouraging people to take action. A strong theme throughout the feedback was a desire for more opportunities like this.
Many participants called for additional sessions to be delivered more widely across the community, including in schools and to younger audiences via platforms such as social media.
