Enjoyed “being lost” wandering around Venice this morning. Having a well earned break to rest up and recharge. When in Italy one must Spritz!

Disappointing news.

For a few years now, Murri Watch have been supporting young people withheld in 16 watch houses across Queensland, ensuring their well being, and maintaining their connection to needed services, family, community and culture.

We regret to advise that this service will be coming to an end at the completion of the funding contract as of 30th June 2026.

Our team have been proud to stand alongside young people during some of their most challenging moments, offering guidance, advocacy and culturally informed support.

Moving post 30th June, if a young First Nations person requires support while being detaining in any of the following watch houses
Brisbane, Caboolture, Pine Rivers, Redcliffe, Mareeba, Caloundra, Maroochydore, Toowoomba, Cairns, Ipswich, Townsville, Mackay, Beenleigh, Richlands, Cleveland or Southport, assistance can be provided by contacting Youth Justice After Hours:
1300 243 066 – Young person line
1300 343 299 – Stakeholder line
1300 456 033 – Police line

As we work toward concluding service delivery, we extend our sincere thanks to the communities, families, stakeholders and our front line staff who have been impacted by this service, and supported this work, sharing our commitment to improving outcomes for our young people. We are grateful to have been able to play this crucial role for our Community, ensuring our young people are safe, and their rights and dignity upheld.

While this chapter is closing, our dedication to supporting our community remains unchanged and we will continue to explore opportunities to contribute to positive outcomes for children and young people across Queensland.

I love this as it absolutely resonates with me, and reminds me that recharging is a daily task.

I'm signing off for 2025 this afternoon, having finished all of the tasks designated for today/the year I am giving myself an early mark. Mimosa by my side as I type this!

It has been a ridiculously hectic year, with many speed bumps along the way so over the next three weeks I will be doing my best to do nothing except recharge my energy levels for 2026.

Happy Christmas to all ....... and to all .. cheers 🍾

Hi! Today is the LAST DAY of my Workout 4 Women challenge.
I’ve been walking/running/moving throughout November to support women and families impacted by ovarian cancer - and I’d love your help to finish strong. Once again thanks so much to family, friends and colleagues who have donated.

Please join me and give it one last push to help Ovarian Cancer Australia their $350,000 goal, which can be done if I'm able to get a $25 donation today! 💙

Heading towards the end of a very busy year and feeling more than a little tired. Then I received this wonderful gift from a long-term supervision client. Feeling greatly appreciated, and perhaps energised to race to the finish line that is the end of the year.
