Happy Labor Day! We are celebrating the achievements of workers today and are closed on this public holiday.
Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest.

Lest we forget Anzac Day 2024.

Anzac Day is our national day of remembrance for all who served and died in all wars so we can enjoy our lifestyle today. It marks the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during WWI.

Did you know that professional mental health support isn't just telephone helplines?

Free and confidential help is also available through webchat and text.

There are also forums where people can connect with professionals and others with lived experience for advice, referral and support.

Remember, if you're worried about someone but aren't sure where to start, these services can help you navigate the conversation and get them the support they need.
