“When you find out about all these places you’ve never been to and people you’ve never met, it does affect you, and then once you do meet some of them, it just brings so much more into your world.”
- Kathleen Gerada, Link-Up (Qld) client and Stolen Generations descendant.

Last week, our team had a deadly day celebrating culture, community and connection at the Ipswich Flexible Learning NAIDOC event at Purga!
There was an exciting range of activities throughout the day, including a Kup Murri, damper making, cultural activities, sports, music and art workshops. Traditional dance performances from students and the Kutaw Zoeru Traditional Dance Group were also a highlight, celebrating and sharing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture.
Big thanks to Ipswich Flexi School for inviting us!

Link-Up (Qld) extends its sincere thanks to outgoing Healing Foundation CEO Shannan Dodson for her incredible leadership and advocacy for Stolen Generations survivors and families across Australia. Shannan has been a powerful voice for survivors, keeping their stories, priorities and unfinished business firmly in the national spotlight. We thank her for her immense contribution and wish her every success for what comes next!
We look forward to continuing our strong relationship with The Healing Foundation and the National Link-Up Network to support genuine healing for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Our team celebrated 50 Years of Deadly at the National NAIDOC Awards in Mparntwe (Alice Springs) at the weekend! Congratulations to all nominees and winners, including the Murri School (Education Award) and Dr Stephen Hagan (Male Elder of the Year).

Earlier in the year, we posted that through significant research undertaken by Link-Up (Qld), more than 80 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls connected to the former Aboriginal Girls Home, West End have been identified, with their names now publicly available to help reconnect families. Located at what is now Orleigh Park in West End, the Home operated from 1899 to 1906 under legislation that enabled the removal and control of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Girls and young women were brought to Brisbane to be trained as domestic servants for white households, often far from their families and communities.
If you believe you may be a descendant of one of the women identified, we encourage you to complete the form at: https://link-upqld.org.au/aboriginalgirlshomewestend
This information can help Link-Up (Qld) continue to identify family and community connections and support the healing journeys of Stolen Generations survivors and descendants.
