Come As You Are

Fortnightly Creative Drop-In Space

A fortnightly creative drop-in space for women impacted by family violence.

This is a welcoming place to slow down, create, reflect, and gently reconnect with identity, self-worth, and personal strengths through creative expression and time in community with others.

There is no counselling involved. This is not a therapy service.

You’re welcome to take part in the creative offerings, sit quietly, talk with others, or simply be present in your own way.

There are no expectations of regular attendance or ongoing commitment — come along whenever it suits you.

What to expect

  • Creative options such as art, writing, and reflection-based making

  • A calm, respectful, and welcoming environment

  • Friendly connection without pressure

  • Freedom to come and go as you need

Who it is for

Women impacted by family violence, including those seeking space to reconnect with identity, value, and self-worth in a supportive environment.

Important note

This is not a counselling or crisis service. If you need immediate support, please contact appropriate crisis or support services in your area.
