We all have passions. Whilst some peopleās passions are very obvious, for others, it takes a bit of digging to find the hidden treasures! Whether your passion is art, music, study, travel, pets, or family (etc), our passions can act as protective factors that keep us going. Letās power on and discuss our passions.
The event start times across Australia are below:
This is currently held in Australian Eastern Standard hours:
WA: 5pm
NT: 6:30pm
SA: 6:30pm
QLD: 7pm
NSW, ACT, VIC & TAS: 7pm
For anyone unfamiliar with Peer Group Chats, each focuses on a specific topic and is guided by Peer Workers with lived experience of mental health issues and recovery, &/or caring for someone with complex mental health. A counsellor is also present as a moderator to help ensure a safe environment for individuals and the group. It is a space for us as peers to share our stories and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar.
Peer Group Chats are hosted outside of the forums, using a platform called Chatwee. To join an Online Peer Group Chat, you will need to register for an account with Chatwee. On the night, follow this link and log in to your Chatwee account before the group starts.
Please see this FAQ for any questions you may have. For any issues on the night, please message the moderator of the group on the Chat platform. If you'd like to receive a reminder closer to the event, please support this post & we'll keep you updated.
