Today is . Statistics show 727000 people take their life each year in the world along with many that attempt. We all have a role to play in preventing su***de and there is always help for those in need.

From individuals checking in with loved ones, to communities creating safe spaces, to governments enacting policies and allocating resources — together, we can change the narrative and work towards a world where su***de is prevented, and every life is valued.

We are thrilled to recognize Ben as our Employee of the Month for August! Congratulations, Ben, well deserved!

Our amazing crew has just enjoyed an unforgettable supported holiday in beautiful Bali! From exploring local culture, trying new foods, relaxing by the pool, and visiting stunning sights, every moment was filled with laughter, learning, and memories to last a lifetime. 💛

At Waverley Helpmates, we believe everyone should have something to look forward to beyond work, which is why we have been supporting our Helpmates to dream big and travel far since 1993.

Here are some happy snaps from our Bali adventure!

The training sessions do take place in our new training facility, conveniently located near our office.

We are looking forward to seeing all the eager learners there!
