Last week the Cyrenian Central team gathered for a shared lunch to celebrate Harmony Week. This was a great opportunity for staff to share a dish that either reflected their cultural heritage or a simple family favourite. Harmony Week encourages all Australians to experience and appreciate our cultural, linguistic, and religious diversity.
Lunch was followed by an office putting competition to help raise funds for our annual charity golf day. The competition was fierce and was ultimately won by Greg, our Cyrenian Central Service Manager.

Last year the decision was sadly made to close the Cyrenian Café & Boutique. We have recently completed works to clear the site and wrap up the lease. This provided an opportunity to reflect on our time running the café, the lovely local customers and community, and the dedicated staff. While the café was no longer viable due to the number of other similar businesses in the area, we look back with great fondness.

At Cyrenian House we are lucky to have so many amazing women working across all levels of the organisation. We are thrilled to acknowledge this important day and these incredible women, today and everyday.

Last year, Cyrenian House purchased two properties for use in our Transitional Housing & Accommodation Support Program (THASP). Dani, Sandy and Greg recently helped set up the houses ready for residents to move in.

The detached duplex, built in 2019, offers spacious and modern living arrangements, for our recently graduated Therapeutic Community residents. The layout of the houses will allow for increased connection with others in recovery and an expanded support network within the home environment.

These two properties replace accommodation we previously rented, allowing us to improve the sustainability of the program. THASP offers tailored support alongside connection with further study, support groups, work and training opportunities.

Yesterday was International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. This marks the start of WA’s 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, led by the Department of Communities.

Cyrenian House’s staff and residents from Munda Mia Therapeutic Community joined the 35th March Against Domestic and Family Violence, hosted by the Centre for Women's Safety and Wellbeing - thank you to everyone who marched in solidarity.

Everyone has a role in standing up against family and domestic violence. We all need to play our part to help end the cycle of violence and promote gender equality in Western Australia.

Thank you, Minister, for taking the time out of your busy schedule to visit Rick Hammersley Centre Therapeutic Community; and for your kind words to Parliament. We are proud to deliver these essential AOD treatment services to communities across WA.

It was a privilege to meet Brad and Raisa at the Rick Hammersley Centre a two Western Australians working incredibly hard on their recovery journeys.

Both spoke with honesty about the challenges they’ve faced, and the strength they’ve found through structured support, connection, and a community that believes in them.

Their stories are a powerful reminder that recovery is possible - and that people do better when they can access the right care, in the right place, at the right time.

That’s why we’re committed to building a system that supports every Western Australian, no matter their circumstances, to rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
