Doesn’t matter where you are.

The joy is the same.

As are the people.

Same dreams, same hopes, same needs.

Everyone deserves a chance.

Don’t leave these kids to live their whole lives behind wire, in a cage, an open air prison.

Let them have a life of dignity, safety, and joy.

Don’t buy into the hate, division, dehumanisation.

Ultimately, we’re one people, on one planet.

Stand up for all forcibly displaced people.

Especially the kids.

And for all refugees.

We extend our gratitude to all nurses for their unwavering commitment to their patients, their communities, and the profession.
With their impact felt in every corner of society, it's important we care for the health and well-being of nurses too.

Babies don't stop being born, or people's loved ones needing your professional and compassionate care. Thank you to everyone who is working over the public holidays. You deserve your penalty rates.

Australia's world-class public health system has got your back when you need it the most.

Can we afford to risk the slow creep of Americanisation?
