From Perth to Hervey Bay, Bidfood branches across Australia turned red to support Day for Daniel. Teams took time to talk about child safety and share messages they could take home to help create safer environments for children.

A long-time supporter of the Foundation, Bidfood added a fun twist this year with a “Reddest Branch” trophy. Hervey Bay took out the win with standout spirit and creativity, backed by strong support from branches and suppliers nationwide.

Thank you, Bidfood Australia , for your ongoing commitment to keeping kids safe.

Today at our Annual Alliance Meeting we were proud to launch the QAMH Strategic Plan 2025 to 2030. This plan reflects what our members have told us matters most for the future of community mental health in Queensland. Built around four pillars of Advocacy, Innovation, Connection and Sustainability, the plan sets out a clear direction for how we will champion community-led mental health supports and strengthen mental health for all Queenslanders.

Emily Wolter facilitated a panel with our Member-elected directors, Melanie Sennett, Tanya O'Shea, and Belinda CHELIUS, who shared their insights on where QAMH is headed and the opportunities ahead for our sector. Their perspectives remind us that our direction is grounded in lived experience, community expertise, and the realities of frontline service delivery.

We look forward to partnering with our Members, communities, and stakeholders to turn this bold plan into impact.
