September 10th is World Su***de Prevention Day, a time to come together and recommit to our shared goal of preventing su***de and spreading hope.
This year's theme, 'Changing the Narrative on Su***de,' challenges us to shift from silence and stigma to openness, empathy, and action. It's a call to ensure those who are struggling feel heard, supported, and connected.

In Australia, su***de remains the leading cause of death among people aged 15-44. We know that behind every statistic is a story. By changing the conversation, we can help create a future where more lives are saved and more stories are shared.

If you or someone you know needs support, you can connect with headspace Frankston, or other resources like Lifeline (13 11 14), Beyond Blue (1300
224 636), or the Su***de Call Back Service (1300 659
467). In case of emergency please call 000 for assistance.

Supported through Frankston City Council’s Local Support Package, we are very thankful and honoured to have been included alongside a range of amazing local organisations and volunteer run charities, who are all doing invaluable work to support our community facing tough times.
I was humbled to hear the kind and generous words spoken about our team and service, by our colleague, su***de prevention advocate and ‘Citizen of the Year’ Wayne Holdsworth and State Member for Frankston, Paul Edbrooke MP.
These funds will help us to meet the growing need for social connection and basic material support for young people aged 12 – 25 years, reaching out for our support at headspace Frankston.

This Sunday 31st August marks international Overdose Awareness Day. headspace Frankston would like to acknowledge the impact of overdose on individuals, families, and communities and to stand in solidarity with those who have been affected.

This year's theme is, 'One big family - driven by hope'. This International Overdose Awareness Day let’s imagine a new meaning of what family can be. A family driven by hope, love and action. We are one big family – not just because we share in the pain of loss, but because we share in the power to change what comes next.

International Overdose Awareness Day is driven by the following principles:
➡️Overdose can and must be prevented.
➡️Overdose prevention solutions exist – let’s use them.
➡️Criminalizing drug use hasn’t worked. Compassionate alternatives must be pursued.
➡️Policy and legislation must exist to protect individuals and communities, and ensure basic human rights and needs are met.
➡️Everyone has a right to respectful and comprehensive health care.
➡️Only a community-wide effort can end overdose.
➡️Join us to take action on overdose today.

Legislation to enshrine drug checking passed into law passed the Victorian Parliament in October last year. Our lead organisation, now leads The Victorian Pill Testing Service open at 95 Brunswick Street Fitzroy.

💜It's Wear It Purple Day tomorrow!! 💜

Wear It Purple Day is an annual awareness and support day in Australia that celebrates and shows solidarity with LGBTQIA+ young people. Whether you’re catching up and celebrating with pals, or you're keeping your celebrations online and low-key, adding purple to your outfit is the ultimate (and easiest) way to get involved.

Every purple moment of visible pride or allyship sends a message of support to LGBTQIA+ young people, even something that seems small to you, like a purple hair-tie or wrist band, has a BIG impact.

This year the theme is, "Bold Voices, Bright Futures", go to https://www.wearitpurple.org/ or check out the reel from .speaking to learn more.
