20.01.2022 Tom Hardy, in the movie Inception, delivered this frame worthy line. We thought you could use a little reminder that 2021 is year of big dreams, hope and success. Have the courage to dream big! We'd love to hear about a movie or series scene that's inspired you. #Inception #dreamscometrue #quotestoliveby

20.01.2022 When you notice the signs someone is struggling, take the time to ask R U OK? If they say theyre not OK make time to listen, encourage action and check in. Remember, theres more to say after R U OK? Learn what to say next at www.ruok.org.au #theresmoretosay

17.01.2022 Here at 12 Buckets we are firm believers in the philosophy of "Fill Up to Pour Out". We support the idea that a sense of self-fulfilment can be achieved by selflessly satisfying the needs of others. As working with others is deemed important for overall wellbeing and sense of place within community. #12buckets #mentoring #filluptopourout

16.01.2022 There is such value in belonging to a community and we love our 12 Buckets community!!! Our community gives us a sense of security and support. Through all the different connections we make within our community from supporters, mentors, students, teachers, and co-workers - it enables us to fulfil our need to Belong. This image gives a little snapshot into our community and the numbers that make it work.... If you would like to be part of the 12 Buckets community visit our website for more information www.12buckets.org

16.01.2022 Great idea for all the family!

16.01.2022 No matter whether we are speaking of our work or personal life the strength of friendships and inclusion are important always. Within our one to one mentoring we help our students better understand - friendship and the importance of making friends with people we like; and inclusion which can help us feel safe and welcome. If you would like to support 12 Buckets in continuing to deliver our program please visit our website http://ow.ly/kbZk50Aqcw3 or email [email protected]

16.01.2022 We want to say a huge thank you to the team at Ever Nimble. They have put together a team of four to plunge for 12 Buckets at the Central Park Plunge.
