We’re doing Christmas differently this year. 🎄

Instead of collecting toys for our young people in care, we’re focusing on fundraising. By donating funds instead of gifts, we can ensure every child in care receives something truly personal – chosen just for them by their local team. ❤️

Every dollar makes a difference, so donate now via the link 🔗 https://tinyurl.com/rfjftaar

Our Newcastle beach explorers have been out enjoying the sunshine! ☀️

Each week this crew sets off to discover a new stretch of sand across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. It’s a wonderful way to connect with others, enjoy a BBQ, and soak up the best of our beautiful coastline. 🌊

CARE, the model we use to create positive change for the young people and families we support, is underpinned by six guiding principles. Our PSP Practice Manager, Kristy Downes, provides a quick overview of what the 'Relationship Based' principle is all about. 👨‍👩‍👦

The ‘relationship based’ principle focuses on the importance of connecting with children, and helping them build and maintain relationships that are positive and supportive. It's about more than being kind, it’s about creating a world where children feel safe enough to grow. 🩷
