Our hearts are with everyone impacted by the tragic events in Bondi. It’s okay if you or your young person are feeling shaken, sad or unsettled right now. 💚

It’s important to remember that events like this can be especially distressing for young people, who may be exposed to upsetting content through news or social media. It’s understandable if your young person is feeling distressed or overwhelmed by what they may be hearing and seeing.

Encouraging breaks from media and gently checking in with how your young person is coping can help during this time.

headspace is here to support young people and families during this difficult time. You can reach out to our local centre on 1800 718 383, or access online support with eheadspace at eheadspace.org.au or 1800 650 890 (3pm-10pm).

If you or someone you know urgently needs someone to talk to outside of these hours, please call:

Lifeline 13 11 14

Kids Helpline 1800 55 1800

Summer celebrations are in full swing! 🌞 It's understandable if you are worried about your young person heading out to parties and social events this holiday season.

Having open conversations about partying safely can feel tricky, but you don't have to navigate this alone. Whether it's their first party or they're already socialising regularly, staying connected and creating a safe space to chat can make a big difference.

Members of our Youth Reference Group recently completed Youth Mental Health First Aid training. It was two full days of learning, conversation and incredible insights from our YRG members. ✨

A big thank you to Esther from headspace Tuggeranong and Tash from headspace Shoalhaven and Kiama for facilitating this training.

This training was funded through money raised during the Push-Up Challenge, so thank you to everyone who outcomes for youth mental health and made this possible. 💚
