Peer Group Chat // Embracing Our Imperfections // Thursday 19th October 2023, 7-8:30PM AEDT
On Thursday 19th October 2023, we will be holding a Peer Group Chat on the topic of Embracing Our Imperfections.
There can be a fear that our imperfections or differences will set us apart from others. But, our imperfections, and our differences, are also what make us unique. Let’s come together to explore and embrace our imperfections, how they make us unique and whether they're really such a bad thing after all.
The event start times across Australia are below:
This is currently held in daylight savings hours:
WA: 4pm
NT: 5:30pm
SA: 6:30pm
QLD: 6pm
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.
