21.01.2022 Too often men are expected to be strong, tough and overall, unemotional. This is especially the case for men in construction or trade-based jobs. Mental Health is not commonly spoken of at smoko or after work drinks and sadly, talking about mental struggles are not part of the tradie culture traditionally. Looking after your mental health in conjunction with your emotional and physical health is a key component to doing your job well and enjoying life outside of work. A M...ental Health First Aid program can have enormous benefits to any business but particularly blue collar workers as they suffer some of the highest suicide rates in Australia.

08.01.2022 Community partnerships are at the heart and soul of Novaskill. As we strive to achieve our mission to support our communities and enrich peoples lives, we cannot emphasize enough the enormous value we place upon these partnerships. The work of Social Futures is truly extraordinary. This organisation provides positive social change for youth affected by homelessness and joblessness. An alliance with Novaskill Northern Rivers - RTO 6996 whereby we assist in the facilitation... of training and employment opportunities for these clients, was a plausible connection. We met Kahleah back in March when our Ballina team worked closely with Lee Sherman from Social Futures, to facilitate some new training opportunities. As a team, we were able to provide an exciting opportunity to gain a qualification for Kahleah, a highly skilled staff member for Leigh, owner of Casino Motor Inn, and a great overall outcome for Social Futures. Now in her fifth month, Kahleah is going from strength to strength. Please join us in wishing her all the best for a bright and prosperous future!
