What’s in the First Aid Kit:
Did you know that all Proactive Support staff carry a First Aid Kit in their car? It’s there just in case —whether it’s to help a participant, lend a hand to a stranger, or handle one of life’s unexpected little moments (because we all know they happen when we least expect them!).
Let’s take a peek inside and see what some of these items are for....

October is National Safe Work Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of health and safety in the workplace. It’s an opportunity for employers, workers, and the community to come together to promote safe practices, reduce risks, and create safer work environments for everyone. This year’s theme of ‘Safety: Every Day, every Job’ highlights that a safe and healthy workplace benefits both individuals and businesses, ensuring that everyone goes home safely at the end of the day. If you have any questions about our Work Health and Safety Policy or safe work practices, please get in touch.

Queensland Mental Health Week 4 –12 October, 2025, encourages all of us to think about our mental health and wellbeing, regardless of whether we have experienced mental illness or not, and encourages help-seeking behaviours, when needed. The week also gives us the opportunity to understand the importance of mental health in our everyday lives. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. If you need to talk to someone, please call Geoff, or reach out to 1300 MH Call (1300 642 255), Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.

Proactive Adventures enjoying fishing in the Pumicestone passage last week. Variety of fish caught but nothing edible. Thankfully there was a chef on board to cook up a BbQ so no one starved!

Staff Focus
Child Safe Organisations – Changes Coming in October
From 1 October 2025, new laws called the Child Safe Organisations Act 2024 will come into effect in Queensland. These laws are all about making sure children and young people are kept safe and supported wherever they receive services—including here at Proactive Support. The Act introduces 10 Child Safe Standards, which are practical steps organisations need to follow to make sure children are listened to, respected, and protected. A second stage of the changes, called the Reportable Conduct Scheme, will start from July 2026. This will make sure any allegations of harm are reported and followed up properly.
For us as a disability supports company, this means weaving child safety into everything we do—not just in policies, but also in how we work with families and participants every day. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing some MANDATORY training and resources with staff to help everyone understand what these changes mean in practice.
It’s about building on what we already do well - creating an environment where children and young people know they are safe and valued. Together, we can make sure we’re not only meeting the new rules, but building a culture where child safety is second nature to all of us.
