Today is Global Peer Support Celebration Day! It’s an opportunity to celebrate and recognise the contributions of peer support workers and raise awareness about the value of lived and living experience. This year’s theme is Peer Support Belongs Here. Peer support is grounded in shared lived and living experience. It creates space for people to feel understood, connected and hopeful, and offers something unique alongside other forms of care and support. Living Proud has been built on peer support. For community, by community. Without these committed and passionate people, Living Proud would not exist. We thank you! #PeerSupportBelongsHere. #GlobalPeerSupportCelebrationDay
This week, we had the privilege of presenting at the Global Mental Health Summit here in Boorloo. The presentation discussed the impact on many LGBTIQA+SB people navigating systems that don’t always understand their lives, don't feel inclusive and create barriers to safe, inclusive healthcare and support. We also talked about the role that workplaces, schools, services, government and society play in creating environments where people feel safe, valued and able to thrive. Peer-led organisations like Living Proud are essential to this work. We bring lived experience and community knowledge, support people to feel understood, and help mainstream services build their capacity. Peer-led services are essential infrastructure, not an optional addition. Because the goal shouldn’t be helping people become better at surviving exclusion. It should be creating the conditions for everyone to thrive. #GMHS #globalmentalhealthsummit2026

Good luck to the Fremantle Dockers this Saturday in the AFL Grand Final! What a season they have had! Congratulations also to @baileybanfield on receiving the Jim Stynes Community Leadership Award at the Brownlow Medal. This award recognises an AFL player who best embodies the values of the late Jim Stynes by going above and beyond with community service and off-field leadership. We applaud this kind of values driven leadership that can help so many people. Thank you Bailey! We will be watching the grand final tomorrow and cheering you on! It's Wharfie Time!!
💜 Happy Bi Visibility Day! 💜 Bisexual people make up more than half of the LGBTIQA+ community, yet bisexuality is still often misunderstood, questioned or erased — both within our communities and beyond them. Being bisexual doesn’t depend on who you’re dating, who you’ve dated before, or whether you’re dating anyone at all. A bisexual person’s identity doesn’t become more or less valid because of their partner, their relationship history or their current circumstances. Today, we celebrate bisexual people in all their diversity and remind our community: bi visibility matters, bi identities are valid, and bisexual people belong. 💜 #bivisibility #bivisibilityday
