Almost 30 service providers are booked in for event, which will be held at Gunnedah PCYC from 10am-1pm. The event is driven by Gunnedah Community Action Team.

GoCo's Kate McGrath said the event wasn't just for the homeless, but also those that may be at risk of homelessness.

"A lot of people are only one paycheck away from being homeless - they're living week-to-week. By the time they pay for rent, food, electricity, for the car, [they] really are living hand-to-mouth and are struggling to get by," Mrs McGrath said.

"Homelessness does have a lot of faces and the point of the day is to get everyone who can benefit from the resources at the same place at the same time for a smorgasbord of help."

This year, the event will be run a little differently from the past two years it has been held.

"In the past, we had lots of donations so people could just turn up and grab whatever was on the table and take it home, but this year we've shifted a little more to a voucher system," Mrs McGrath said.

"Vinnies and the Salvos have donated vouchers for their stores, so people can go and choose what's appropriate to them and their needs so hopefully that's a little more organised that just donations."

Service providers who will be attending the event include GoCo, Flourish Australia, Gunnedah Family Support, Homes North, and Gunida Gunyah.

Joblink Plus, Tamworth Family Support, the Salvation Army, and Jobs Australia will also be offering advice and support.

Free food will also be available, provided by Rapid Relief and Gunnedah Good Noshery, as well as free haircuts by numerous local hairdressers.
