STAND together to make a safer, stronger community

Next date: Monday, 01 December 2025 | 06:00 PM to 08:00 PM

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported in our community. Harmful behaviours don’t have to be ignored - with the right tools, we can all make a difference.

STAND (Speak. Take Action. Notice. Disrupt.) is a FREE, interactive 2-hour community event designed to empower people with the confidence and practical strategies to respond to harmful behaviours in safe, respectful, and effective ways.

Together, we will:

  • Understand why noticing and responding matters
  • Recognise early signs of harmful behaviour
  • Practice safe and respectful ways to “call out” or “call in” behaviour
  • Build strategies to support others and strengthen community safety

This is not a lecture - it’s a hands-on, engaging session that encourages reflection, conversation, and collaboration. You’ll leave with realistic strategies you can use in everyday situations to help create a safer, more connected community.
