This morning, headspace Queanbeyan dropped by Bunnings Fyshwick to help support tradies' mental health! 🛠️💚

We brought along some fun merch and helpful resources, while the legends at Bunnings cooked up a delicious brekkie for the tradies on the go! 🥓☕

We had an amazing time chatting, connecting, and spreading positive messages around mental health and help-seeking 🧠💚

🖤💛❤️ It's NAIDOC Week! 💚💙🤍

This week (July 6-13), we celebrate National NAIDOC Week, a time to recognise the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples! It's a chance for all Australians to learn, reflect, and connect with the oldest, continuous living cultures on Earth 🌏✨

The theme for NAIDOC Week this year, "The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy," shines a light on the power of our young First Nations leaders, the strength of community, and the deep legacy that ancestors have left behind that continues to inspire the future generations 🙌🔥

At headspace Queanbeyan, we proudly support all First Nations peoples. Our doors are always open if you ever feel like having a yarn 💬💚

This week (and every week!), we encourage you all to get involved, join in the celebrations of culture, and show your support for our amazing First Nations community!

Want to learn more about NAIDOC Week and how you can get involved? Check out the official NAIDOC website here: https://www.naidoc.org.au/

Wishing everyone a meaningful and wonderful NAIDOC Week! ✨🖤💛❤️

🌈 Today is IDAHOBIT Day 💚

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia & Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) day, which marks the day in 1990 when the World Health Organisation finally removed homosexuality from the Classification of Diseases.

Today is about celebrating how far we've come for supporting our LGBTQIA+ community, and also remaining aware of the discrimination that still exists today, and working towards a world where our LGBTQIA+ community can feel safe and free to be themselves 🌎🏳️‍🌈

Here at headspace Queanbeyan, we proudly stand with our LGBTQIA+ community. Not just today, but every day! 💪🏽🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

💚 If you would like to learn more about IDAHOBIT day, and what you can do to support our LGBTQIA+ community, click this link to find out more: https://www.idahobit.org.au/
