For many First Nations peoples, conducting or receiving a Welcome to Country is an important cultural practice that has been maintained by First Nations people for thousands of years. A Welcome to Country is an important reminder that we all live on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands and is a mark of respect for Country, Elders, Traditional Owners and Culture.

Here at headspace, we remain committed to supporting the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people and to creating spaces where culture is recognised, respected and valued. We know that a strong sense of identity, Culture and belonging is central to social and emotional wellbeing. When Culture is not respected, it can have a deep impact on how young people see themselves and their place in the world.

To any First Nations young people who feel hurt, frustrated, upset or affected by the booing during the Welcome to Country at some ANZAC Day services, we see you. Your Culture is something to be proud of, and it deserves to be respected. If you or anyone you know needs support or someone to yarn with, you can always call 13YARN or Lifeline for crisis support, or reach out to headspace via the link: https://headspace.org.au/online-and-phone-support/connect-with-us/

Mark your calendar 📆 We’re excited to let you know that The Push-Up Challenge is back in 2026 and you can support headspace Freo again!

From 3 – 26 June, we will be pushing for better, together. Your goal for the challenge will be 3,307 push-ups (or alternative exercises), which sadly represents the number of lives lost to su***de in Australia in 2024.

By taking on the challenge and choosing headspace Freo as your charity, you’ll be strengthening vital mental health services for young people and the family who support them.

Support for family: parents, carers and family can provide vital support for young people when they are having a tough time. headspace is here to help support you through these challenges and transitions.

While providing support to a young person experiencing mental health difficulties can be deeply rewarding, it can also be challenging and have an impact on you. It is essential to look after your own mental health and wellbeing. Visit the link below for some tips and supports.

If you are a family member supporting a person who is experiencing mental health challenges, it is essential to look after your own mental health and wellbeing. Learn more through headspace.

How to support your young person's return to school
If you’re caring for a young person who is refusing to go to school, early action can help prevent behaviours from becoming longer-term habits. Modelling effective communication and problem solving at home can encourage your young person to do the same.
