I have long loved this park - the trees and the dappled light are always beautiful regardless of the season 🌳

Hi all 👋

Just a heads-up that I’m now booked out until I break for Christmas on Friday 19/12.

If you want/need to reschedule an appointment before then, please try to give me 24 hours notice.

This gives me time to offer the appointment to someone who is on the cancellation list, and is always much appreciated 🙏

Thanks so much,

Anita 💗

A safety plan is a simple guide to help keep you safe if you're experiencing domestic, family, or sexual violence. It can include things like who to call, where to go, and what to take with you. You can make a safety plan whether you’re thinking about staying, leaving, or not sure yet.

If you plan to stay, part of your safety plan could be always keeping your phone charged and with you at all times.

If you plan to leave, part of your safety plan could be organising a safe place to go and letting trusted people know where you are.

You can learn more about safety planning on our website: https://1800respect.org.au/help-and-support/safety-planning

No matter what your situation is, 1800RESPECT counsellors can support you with your safety plan. Call 1800 737 732, text 0458 737 732 or visit www.1800respect.org.au for online chat and video call services.

(Image text: Safety planning gives you options and control. If you stay: Keep your phone charged and close by. If you leave: Plan where you’ll go and share your location with someone you trust. Planning ahead can help you feel safer and more prepared.)
