Young people in Fairfield are 1.5 times more likely than NSW youth to be disengaged from school and work.

Without support, that can shape a lifetime of limited opportunity.

Mentorship and local partnerships change that trajectory.

A fairer future is possible when people come together.

Through connection, we break down barriers and create community.

This International Women’s Day, a space was created for women to prioritise their own care while connecting with one another in line with the theme “Balancing the Scales". The event included activities such as coffee scrub making, a henna station, and guided journaling prompts designed to encourage reflection and self-awareness.

By focusing on wellbeing, participants were able to relax into the space and allow conversations to unfold naturally, opening the door for new connections to form.

Together, the group reflected on what brings them calm, what they hope for in the year ahead, and the importance of practising gratitude. One woman shared that her goal is to rediscover who she is beyond being a mother and a wife. Others spoke about happiness, forming new friendships and the simple value of coming together.

Change is possible, and as a community, we want to remind you that safety can be found and solidarity is always here because 'balancing the scales' means creating practical, local spaces where women can build supportive networks and feel a greater sense of safety and belonging.

Extra homework support for primary school students.

Our free Homework Club runs at 5 locations and is open to all primary school students in Years 1 to 6. An educator is there to support students with their homework, answer questions, and guide them if they get stuck.

It gives students the opportunity to complete their homework in a calm, supportive space before going home. With guidance from an educator, they can finish their work, feel more confident, and enjoy their afternoon knowing their homework is done.

That can mean starting school without the stability many children take for granted.

Everyone deserves a place to belong. Your support helps people find their place and forge a fair future.

At the end of January, a group of young people aged 12-14 took part in the Lead the Way youth camp — a safe and supportive space to build confidence, try new things, and connect with others.

Through teamwork, challenges, and shared experiences, many participants discovered strengths they didn’t know they had. Some arrived unsure and quiet. By the end of the camp, they felt more confident, included, and motivated. These moments matter, because they help young people build resilience and see new possibilities for their future.
