💚 I’m not sure Kellie realises just how much she means to the people around her. So today, on her birthday, I want to make sure she does. ❤️ Anyone who knows Kellie knows she has an enormous heart. And if there’s one thing you simply can’t teach someone, it’s how to genuinely care about other people.

Kellie has all of that and more!
She puts her heart and soul into Arm in Arm, cares deeply about the people we support and is always there for our team.

There’s so much that goes on behind the scenes that people don’t always see. The extra effort, the little acts of kindness, the times she goes that bit further simply because she cares.

We see it, Kellie. And appreciate it more than you probably realise. ❤️

Looking through these photos makes me smile because they capture something really special. The connections, the friendships, the laughter and the genuine happiness that comes from being around people who care.
That’s what Arm in Arm is all about, and Kellie is such a huge part of that.

Kellie, I’m incredibly grateful to have you alongside me. Not just because you’re a wonderful leader, but because of the person you are. Arm in Arm simply wouldn’t be what it is without you. 💚

Happy Birthday, Kellie! 🎂🥳

I hope today you feel even a fraction of the love and appreciation you give to others every day. You deserve every bit of it!

❤️ Now, if you know our wonderful Kellie, please help us make her day! Leave her a birthday message or a few kind words below. Let’s remind her just how much she means to all of us! 💚

Really proud to be able to support Noah. 🥊

We see first hand the discipline, commitment and work he puts into everything he does, and it’s a privilege for Arm in Arm to get behind him.

Thanks to Bowen Therapy & Somatic Healing for the shout-out and for supporting local people doing great things.

Keep putting in the work, Noah. We’re proud to be in your corner. 👊

Father's Day is personal for us at R U OK?, and we know this weekend can be enjoyable for many people, but also tough for some.

Our late-founder Gavin Larkin started R U OK? in 2009 after his father Barry died by su***de in 1995.

As a son, brother, husband, uncle and a father himself, Gavin wanted to build a conversation movement that would resonate with all Australians, especially men.

This Father's Day, and as we approach R U OK?Day on Thursday 10 September, we encourage you to take the time to ask, ‘Are you OK?’. Because a conversation could change a life.

🎉🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRAHAM! 🎂🎉

What a fantastic night celebrating one of the great characters in the Arm in Arm community. ❤️
There were presents, plenty of laughs, a seriously impressive birthday cake (Thanks Tanya), some very creative chocolate treats (thanks Toniah) and, of course, one enormous birthday bear who seemed determined to become the centre of attention! 🧸😂

But the best part was seeing Graham surrounded by people who genuinely care and enjoy being part of his life.

Happy Birthday, Graham! We hope you know just how much you are valued around here. Thanks for bringing your humour, personality and plenty of memorable moments to the Arm in Arm crew. 🥳

👇 Let’s absolutely fill the comments for him. Drop a 🎂, 🧸 or a birthday message below and help us wish Graham a very Happy Birthday!

🎉 HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY DAVE! 🍻

A pretty special milestone today for the legend David Ross Hill, who turns the big 5-0.

This morning Chris, Kellie, Rohan, Vanessa and Sarah called in to spend a bit of time with Dave and help him celebrate his birthday.

Dave has been part of the Arm in Arm community for a long time, and over those years we’ve shared plenty of conversations, laughs, outings and memorable moments. Days like today are a good reminder that support work is ultimately about people, relationships and being there for the moments that matter.
50 years is a milestone worth celebrating, and it was great to see Tigger surrounded by some familiar faces this morning.

From all of us at Arm in Arm Support, our staff, participants and the wider Arm in Arm community:

Happy 50th Birthday, Dave. We hope you have a brilliant day. 🎂🎈

Drop Dave a Happy Birthday in the comments and help us make sure he knows just how many people are thinking of him today. ❤️

💚 Walk together. Shine together.

At Arm in Arm Support, we believe the best conversations don’t always happen around a table. Sometimes they happen side by side.

That’s why we’re proud to support the 2.5km Arm in Arm Walk & Talk as part of Glow Run Neon Nights in Wodonga.

Whether you’re walking with family, friends, colleagues or joining on your own, this is an opportunity to slow down, connect with others and enjoy an unforgettable evening filled with music, lights and community spirit.

This event is designed to be inclusive and welcoming for people of all ages and abilities. There are no finish times to chase. Just good people, great conversations and a shared experience you’ll remember.

✨ Your registration also helps support local charity initiatives through the event.

💛 Sometimes the smallest visitors make the biggest impact… 👶

On Tuesday at Café Pallet, we had a very special guest stop by.

Our wonderful Melissa popped in to say hello to the team, bringing along her gorgeous little boy Mason our Arm in Arm Junior….for his first visit to meet everyone. Safe to say he stole the show! ❤️

Watching our participants and staff light up as they took turns cuddling, chatting, feeding, and meeting him was something truly special. There was laughter, smiles, a few “baby experts” offering advice, and more than a handful of people who didn’t want to hand him back! 🍼😊

These are the moments you can’t put on a roster.

They’re not written into a support plan or listed in a schedule.

They’re simply moments of genuine human connection.

At Arm In Arm Support, we believe disability support is about so much more than appointments and routines. It’s about relationships, community, and creating opportunities for people to share in life’s everyday joys together.

Thank you, Melissa, for taking the time to introduce your little man to the Arm In Arm family. We absolutely loved meeting him, and we think he already has plenty of fans. 💙

What’s one small moment recently that made your whole week? We’d love to hear it below. 👇

Today was a strong reminder that community support does not need to be complicated to be meaningful.

Arm in Arm Support had the privilege of handing over care packs and 12 brand new sleeping bags to Serena and Mitch from YES Unlimited, to be distributed to people in our local community who need them most, including people sleeping rough and people experiencing hardship.

A heartfelt thank you to our participants Ellen, Vanessa, Nekitah, Graham and Toniah, who contributed to this initiative with kindness, care and genuine community spirit.

Thank you also to our Team Leader Kellie and her team for helping bring this together. This is the kind of work that reflects who we are at Arm in Arm Support: practical, human, local and grounded in dignity.

Thanks again to Tim and his team at PCYC Albury who are always on board to help the community.

These care packs are not just items in a bag. They represent warmth, hygiene, comfort and a small message to someone doing it tough that they have not been forgotten.

YES Unlimited continues to do vital work across Albury-Wodonga supporting people experiencing homelessness, housing stress, family violence and hardship.

Serena also shared that gift vouchers are currently especially helpful. Something as simple as a gift card can allow a parent to buy their child a birthday present, provide a small experience, or meet a need with dignity and choice.

If you are a local business, community member or organisation and you would like to help, please consider contacting YES Unlimited directly to ask how you can contribute.

Small acts matter. Local care matters. And when the community works together, support reaches the people who need it most.
