We’re building a 20-Year Preventive Health Strategy for Tasmania – and we want the voices of parents from every corner of our state.

Health doesn’t start in a clinic. It starts where life does. Things like housing, food, income, safe schools, transport, and time to rest – they shape over 70% of our health.

Right now, too many Tasmanian families are getting physically or mentally sick because of systems that make life harder than it should be. But most of that illness? It can be prevented.

Join a free online workshop just for parents and friends to share what needs to change.

Pick a session that works for you:

• Wed 23 July 2025, 10:00am
• Wed 23 July 2025, 7:00pm
• Thu 24 July 2025, 7:00pm

? Each session runs for 1 hour – join the conversation from home!

Let’s fix the system – not just the symptoms.

 Happy holidays and see you back here on Monday 21 July.
