Brrr... The winter chill is well and truly here! ❄️☕️

As the days get shorter and the nights grow colder,
it is a great time to look out for each other.

The colder months can bring unique challenges, from isolation to higher energy costs.

Here are three ways you can make a difference in our community right now:
✅ Check in on your neighbors: A quick chat or a simple "Are you warm and safe?" goes a long way.

✅ Donate winter essentials: Consider donating blankets, jackets, or non-perishable goods to local shelters and community pantries.

✅ Look after yourself: Shorter days can take a toll on mental health.
Don't be afraid to take it slow, seek support if you're struggling, and prioritise your wellbeing

Our community is the best medicine we have.
Let’s keep each other warm, safe, and connected! 💙🏡

To our incredible LGBTIQA+ communities across Adelaide and South Australia,
🙏 Thank you for your strength, kindness, pride, and connection.
We’re honored to walk alongside you 💜

Over the past 12 months we’ve:
🌈 continued providing social connection opportunities for older LGBTIQA+ community members
🌈 delivered inclusive practice training across the aged care and community sectors
🌈 and spent time reflecting, listening, and developing new ideas for future training and community education opportunities

This year has also been an important opportunity for us to take stock of how
inclusion education continues to evolve and how we can better
support organisations, workers, and communities into the future.

We’re excited about the next stage of this work, with new training and community initiatives currently in development for release over the coming year 🌈

National Reconciliation Week (27 May to 3 June) is a time for all Australians to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

Catalyst Foundation acknowledges that reconciliation is an ongoing journey and while generations of Australians have fought hard for meaningful change, future gains are likely to take just as much, if not more, effort.

Today, thousands of people celebrate the week in workplaces, schools, early learning services and communities around the country.
