21.01.2022 Mental health issues are becoming increasingly common in Australia, effecting people of all backgrounds without discrimination and unfortunately, this is a fact that many people are still not aware of. Last week, MCCWA organised a community information seminar #Gosnells on mental health, how to identify if we are suffering from #mental_disorders, #symptoms, how to look after ourselves and others who are around us, who we should reach out to and activities we can do to feel more in control. The workshop was well attended by people from diverse backgrounds who enjoyed listening to the speakers' talk including Hon Chris Tallentire, Dr Tahir Babur and Ms Mehwish Ali.

18.01.2022 We have come a long way. From the times where women couldn't vote, to the times where they are leading countries. #womenleader #womenempowerment The 8th of March is International Women's Day, a global day of recognition, celebration and empowerment. Celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and girls, and empowerment through raising awareness of the work left to be done drives further empowerment.

14.01.2022 Have you ever walked along a shoreline only to have your footprints washed away? That is what Alzheimer’s is like. The waves erase the marks we leave behind, all the sandcastles. Some days are better than others. Pat Summitt #Alzheimer’s is something that many of us are aware of, but when it affects someone that is close to us, we find trouble in knowing what to do. The #community_workshop allowed us to be educated on #dementia and gain an overview on what dementia is, how... it impacts us, steps to take if are concerned and what services and education are available from Alzheimer's WA On the 28/10/2020, MCCWA participated in the Alzheimer’s Forum hosted by Hon Matt Swinbourn MLC at #Briggs_Park_Pavilion, #Byford. We organised an information booth where the forum participants have been provided information on the #services which are offered by #MCCWA.

National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) 2020 We at MCCWA celebrate NAIDOC Week along with many other organisations. #NAIDOCWeek begins from 8th of November to 15th of November. #Aboriginal and #Torres_Strait_Islander people were Australia’s first explorers, first navigators, first engineers, first farmers, first botanists, first scientists, first diplomats, first astronomers and first artists. We use this week to invite all Australians to reflect and acknowledge the true history of #Australia. We recognise that the land that we are on began with the #First_Nations people and even after NAIDOC week we will continue to remember the origin of this continent.
