Join us for a Wildflower Walk this Sunday (October 12). Meet at the Yabberup hall at 9am with good walking shoes, hat and a water bottle. As it's snake season, you might like to wear gaiters if you have them (but the crowd will probably solve the problem!).
We will cross over Boyup Brook road into Morrissey Rd so if you have small kids and would prefer, park on Morrissey Rd near the rail trail and wait for the rest of us. (Residents of Morrissey rd, if you are driving somewhere on Sunday morning, please be aware that there will be people on the road between 9 and 10.30am)
We will walk through the bush along a track to further up Morrissey Rd, cross over into an interesting patch of bush to randomly search, then back down Morrissey and along the rail trail.
Then back to the hall at 10.30am for morning tea.

🔥 Men’s Circle at the “Lords” – Yabberup 🔥

I’m excited to invite men to join us for our next Men’s Circle on Saturday 4th October, 9–11am, at the Preston Valley Community Park “Lords” in Yabberup.

This will be a special gathering – not only is it the last time we’ll be able to have a campfire before summer, but it’s also a chance to experience the beautiful new grounds. The Preston River Valley Men's group just placed the new sign, and I’m looking forward to showing the space where we have lots of future plans for the men's gatherings but also the wider community.

Our circles are a place for men to connect, share openly, and find strength in brotherhood. Every voice matters, and every man is welcome.

📍 Preston Valley Community Park “Lords”, Yabberup
🕘 Saturday 4th October, 9–11am

Bring a mate, bring an open heart, and let’s gather around the fire one last time before summer.

Send me a message to get the exact directions.

The Power of Men’s Circles

Over the last few months, something simple yet powerful has been happening — men sitting together, sharing openly, and finding strength in connection. These circles remind us that we don’t have to carry life’s challenges alone.

The group is growing, and with every gathering the sense of connection gets stronger. Men are showing up for each other, creating a space where honesty and support come naturally

The Preston Press recently featured our men’s circle movement, which shows the growing recognition of the importance of men supporting men. I’m grateful for the momentum we’re building and the interest from so many who feel called to join.

It’s not just about the circles — last week we also hiked part of the Bibbulmun Track, reminding ourselves of the power of nature and good conversation along the way.

At the moment we gather twice a month, and the next one will be:
📍 Saturday 4th October
📍 Preston Valley Community Park (Lords Cricket Grounds), Yabberup
🕘 9:00–11:00 am

All men are welcome, whether you’ve sat in circle before or are completely new to it.
