There was such a lovely vibe at the Carersโ€™ Morning Tea last Friday at Yaye's Cafe โ˜•โœจ

Around 25 carers joined us to share breakfast and coffee, connect with others, and take a well-deserved moment for themselves. The morning included a hands-on clay activity facilitated by Central Craft, where everyone created their own unique pieces, along with wellbeing bags to take home. It was a beautiful morning of connection, creativity, and community ๐Ÿ’›

Hosted by MHACA in collaboration with Carers NT, Mental Illness Fellowship of Australia NT, and the Alice Springs Hospital Carer Peer Support Representative, the morning tea was a chance to acknowledge the work and resilience of people caring for others.

MHACA reconnects with the Tennant Creek community ๐Ÿ’›

We had a great time back in Tennant Creek reconnecting with community and sharing a BBQ at Peko Park, hosted by the Marlungku-Kari Child and Family Centre (Julalikari Council Aboriginal Corporation).

Community members shared their experiences and the challenges of accessing mental health training and support in the region. We heard a strong message about the importance of consistent programs and continued advocacy for better services in Tennant Creek.

MHACA will be back on Wednesday 20 May 2026 to deliver a FREE safeYARN suicide prevention training at the Marlungku-Kari Child and Family Centre. All community members are welcome to attend, call (08) 8963 2187 to book your spot.

Thanks for having us!
