CPSN held our 2nd Family Fun Day at the Zoo on 9th November 2025. It was a great day of connection and laughter, a fantastic way to finish off our 2025 events calendar. It was so fantastic to see everyone enjoying themselves and having such a great time connecting with others over a meal.

No matter whether you have been a long-time member of CPSN or are new to CPSN, we hope you had a great day. If you see yourself, feel free to tag away!

🌍 November 17 was World Prematurity Day 💜�
Every year, 15 million babies are born prematurely worldwide.
In Australia, that’s over 26,000 babies annually.

Prematurity is a leading cause of infant mortality and
long- term health issues, including disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy (CP),�
and chronic illnesses like Asthma.

The Australian Cerebral Palsy Register (ACPR) 2023 report found that 43% of children with CP were born pre-term.This year’s theme is: “Give preterm babies a strong start for a brighter future.”

Let’s raise awareness, wear some purple, celebrate resilience, and support research to help reduce preterm births.

CPSN GM of Service Delivery, Tish, shares what our new logo means to her:

“For me, it’s more than just a design. It reflects how far CPSN has come, the strength of our members, and our vision for the future. It’s a reminder that CPSN is here for every stage of life — standing alongside people with CP and their families.”

October is Mental Health Month and at CPSN we take everyone’s mental health seriously.

We are so passionate about making sure everyone is okay - not just on “R U OKAY?” day but all year round.

This month, we held another two day Mental Health First aid training course in Kensington where 16 of our valued Staff, Support Workers and members’ attended.

For the last two years our staff members, Sharon and Anna have been training all our staff, support workers and community members to look out for how to identify the key signs and symptoms of when they might need to ask someone if they are okay and give them a helping hand with their mental health.

If you want to find out more about our next training course, get in touch with us via our link in bio.
