Looking forward to walking together this Thursday 💙
Just a quick reminder of the details for our DYFA Mates team:
📍 Meet: Maroochydore SLSC
⏰ Time: 5:30am
📅 Thursday, 10 September
We’ll be walking the 9km route to Cheese Wedge Park (just past Mooloolaba SLSC) and back to Maroochydore SLSC.
Thursday also coincides with R U OK? Day, making it an especially meaningful morning to come together, remember those we’ve lost, help break down the stigma around mental health and encourage conversations that matter.
After the walk, anyone who would like to is welcome to join us for coffee and breakfast at Ricks on 6th. ☕️
Thanks again to everyone walking, donating and supporting our team. Looking forward to seeing you bright and early Thursday morning! 💙
DYFA Mates
Looking out for each other.
DYFA Mates - Looking Out For Each Other
At DYFA, we spend a huge part of our lives at work, often side by side with the same people every day. Our work mates become an important part of our lives, which means we have an opportunity, and a responsibility, to look out for each other.
For our industry, that matters more than we might realise. Male construction workers are around twice as likely to die by suicide as other Australian men.
DYFA Mates is about being there for the people we work alongside every day. Checking in, speaking up, noticing when something isn't right and making sure our mates know they don't have to carry things alone.
This year, our team is taking part in Lifeline's Out of the Shadows walk in memory of those lost to suicide, including our former team member and mate, Joel, who we sadly lost last year. For many of us, this walk has a very personal meaning.
We'll be walking together to remember Joel and others who have been lost, and as a reminder to keep looking out for the people around us today. To start conversations, check in on our work mates, notice when something isn't right and make it easier for someone to speak up when they're doing it tough.
We're also proud to raise funds through the walk to support Lifeline and the important work they do for people experiencing crisis.
Join us for the walk
Thursday 10 September | 5.30am
We’ll meet at Maroochydore SLSC and walk together to Mooloolaba SLSC and back, before coming together for coffee and breakfast.
Everyone is welcome to join the DYFA Mates team and walk with us.
