For many in the LGBTQIA+ community, the journey isn't always easy. We march to let you know that our helplines are a safe, non-judgmental space for everyone, no matter who you love or how you identify.

Huge thanks to our friends at Belron! โค๏ธ

The teams at Smith&Smith, Laser NZ, and Exceed - we fix windows & doors have truly gone above and beyond, raising an incredible $56,575 for Lifeline Aotearoa.

What makes this so special is how it happened. Teams from every corner of the country got involved with fun, grassroots ideasโ€”everything from "crowd-favourite" auctions to selling homemade preserves.

As Lifeline GM Lisa Rudolphe says, these funds translate directly into answered calls for people facing their toughest moments. We are so proud to partner with a team that cares so deeply about their community.

Lifeline Aotearoa today had the pleasure of hosting Mental Health Minister Hon Matt Doocey MP , Green Party Co-leader Chlรถe Swarbrick arbrick and various Health New Zealand officials.

They spent time speaking with Lifeline counsellors who shared their personal insights and experiences.

The group then met with PSN CE Shaun Greaves, Social Services GM Grenville Hendricks and Practice Development Manager Jane Bennett, where they discussed the crucial role that Lifeline plays in our countryโ€™s mental health system.

It was great to meet face-to-face and share our strong commitment to improving mental health services in New Zealand.
