October 6-14 is Queensland Mental Health Week and we are so proud to be partnering with Open Doors Youth Service Inc. for the launch or their #CreativeTherapiesWeek empowered by #qmhw and the Queensland Mental Health Commission.
We hope to see you throughout the week as we acknowledge the importance of not only our own mental health but that of our friends, families, colleagues and communities.

You are invited to Open Doors Youth Service Inc. #CreativeTherapiesWeek.
Thanks to Aurizon's Community Giving fund, we are partnering with Open Doors Youth Service Inc. for the official launch of this incredible 4-day long bonanza.
An array of different Art Therapy, Drama Therapy and Music Therapy will be explored over the 4 days, with daily workshops ranging from mandala making to mindfulness, drumming to poetry, and creative writing workshops.

Today, Lifestyle Solutions’ Australian Disability Enterprise, Bindi Enterprises, celebrates its 40th anniversary in Alice Springs. Actor Aaron Pedersen, and his brother, Vinnie, a former supported worker at Bindi Enterprises, were guest speakers at the special community event.
Joyce Bowden OAM, one of the founders of Bindi Enterprises, and Anne McNamara launched their book, Bindi – Valuing Difference, a beautifully written account of Bindi Enterprises’ journey from a small co...mmunity-based group supporting three young people with disability into the unique organisation it is today.
Congratulations to #Bindi on their tremendous effort and commitment to supporting people to achieve the best in life.
