Sobering Up Centre - Broome

Sobering Up Centres provide a safe environment in which people found intoxicated in public may sober up. A person being cared for in a Sobering Up Centre can expect:

• Access to bathroom facilities, a shower, bed, clean clothes, and a simple nutritious meal
• Non-discriminatory and non-judgemental care
• Referral to other agencies and services if required.

People may refer themselves to a centre or be brought in by the police, a local patrol, health/welfare agencies, or other means.  Attendance at a centre is voluntary.
