TuesdayNov 10 2026[Free Workshop]: Holding Space for Suicide DistressWebsite
About the workshop:
In many spaces suicide distress is discussed through a risk-averse lens that centres organisational safety over human connection. Part of having a more human approach to supporting people starts with addressing common myths and misconceptions about suicide, as well as approaching the support in a way that upholds dignity, autonomy, and human rights. This workshop aims to build the skills of attendees, is built on the foundations of lived experience wisdom and is facilitated by people with lived experience of suicide distress.
Who this workshop is for:
This workshop is for lived experience community members that want to learn skills around more compassionately supporting people in distress who may be experiencing suicidal thoughts.
At LELAN we define lived experience as having been through mental health issues and/or distress, social issues, or injustice that is so significant we have to have to reimagine and redefine ourselves, our place in the world, and our future plans [Louise Byrne & Til Wykes, 2020].
Themes covered:
common myths and misconceptions addressing who risk-averse approaches really protects the reality of harm caused by clinical approaches, police, and forced interventions what it really looks like when dignity, autonomy, and human rights are upheld in responses to suicide distress skills for connecting and supporting people in suicide distress that are centred in compassionStructure of the day:
This is an interactive facilitated workshop that will include presentation of information by the facilitator(s), large and small group discussions and reflective exercises. The knowledge, skills and diverse experiences of participants will be drawn on to create an environment of dialogue, shared learning and community.
Workshop facilitator:
The lead facilitator for this workshop will be Emrys Temple-Heald (He/Him), Peer Training Coordinator.
You can learn more about the LELAN team at www.lelan.org.au/our-people.
*If you have not registered for the ‘Sharing Safely and for Influence’ online module, or have not completed this previously with LELAN, we encourage you to do so.
The ‘Sharing Safely and for Influence’ content will encourage reflection on how we manage our own needs and boundaries but will also explore strategies for caring for others when sharing our stories. This will provide a foundation to work from leading into the workshop days. For more information or to register for this online please click [here].

SaturdayNov 21 2026Friends of Belair National ParkWebsite
Belair National Park (the Park) is 835 hectares of diverse habitats, supporting many threatened species. The Friends of Belair National Park play a critical role in the on-ground management of this incredible biodiversity. As a volunteer group, we simply don’t have the numbers to adequately cover the entirety of the Park, so every extra pair of hands really counts.
How you can help Join us at one of our regular bushcare sessions: Tuesday and Friday morning: every week, 8:30 am to 10:30 am, meet at the Green Shed (near Main Oval) before 8:30 am Saturday morning: on the third Saturday of every month, from 9:00 am to 11.00 am, meet at the Green Shed at 9:00 am Thursday evening: alternate weeks during daylight saving periods, any time between 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, locations vary. Adopt a block – work in your own area, in your own time. See below. Help us in other ways. We’re always seeking more hands for non-bushcare tasks. Everyone is welcome to come and try, you don’t need to make a regular commitment, and there are many benefits for the Park and for you. We provide all training and tools; you provide the enthusiasm. If you’re new to bushcare and don’t know how it works that’s fine, we can help you find some easily identified weeds and show you how we remove them without causing damage to the native plants we are trying to protect.
If you need more information contact Catherine Miles 0408 640 377.
