Today, on UN International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we're recognising the unique challenges faced by young people with disabilities and their households. 💚

Social barriers can seriously impact mental health and wellbeing. At headspace, we believe in a future where all young people can thrive and access the support they need without facing unnecessary hurdles.

Let's commit to fostering disability-inclusive societies so every young person feels safe, valued, and empowered to advance their own progress.

Remember: If you're struggling, headspace is here for you. You don't have to go through it alone.

✨ **New changes are coming to social media in Australia!**
From the 10th of December 2025, some platforms will introduce a minimum age restriction of 16. It’s all about helping young people stay safe online and reducing things like cyberbullying and harmful content.

If you’re supporting a young person and worried about how this might affect them, you’re not alone. **headspace is always here to support you** 💚
