Recently, our people across PAE participated in the 15 Minute Challenge, a six-week online team competition encouraging us to find time to be active for at least 15 minutes a day for as many days as possible.

Congratulations to our winning team the Hotsteppers! (pictured) who clinched bragging rights and took out the Exercise Challenge Cup.

Today is International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD) a UN day that aims to raise awareness and promote the rights and wellbeing of people with disability. In 2024, we continued work towards our Inclusive Communities Plan which included: • a new Changing Places facility opened at Largs Bay, providing a fully accessible public toilet with change table and hoist for people with severe or profound disability. • continued support for a range of inclusive sports and activities at The Lights, Lefevre Stadium and our Libraries, creating opportunity for learning and connection.  • Delivery of Disability Awareness Training and Accessible Events training for staff, including the development of Event Access guides for major events. • In February 2025, we are supporting the Amplifii Music Festival in PAE, an inclusive and accessible music festival where people of all abilities are welcomed to share their love of music and dance. In 2025 we will begin developing a new Inclusive Communities Plan and will ask the community what they would like to see included. We will continue to cultivate and maintain a diverse workforce that mirrors the rich diversity of the community we serve and foster a workplace culture that is fair, equitable, discrimination-free, and safe for everyone.  For more information about our commitment to access and inclusion in the City of PAE visit: https://lnkd.in/gW9tJnZi Or sign up to Participate PAE to be notified about when and how you can provide input into our new Inclusive Communities Plan: https://lnkd.in/gPcGnkRt 📷 (L to R) Kristin, Tara, Leanne and Rob are some of the members from PAE's Inclusive Communities Working Group - a group of employees with lived experiences and specialist knowledge working to improve access and inclusion outcomes in our City.

Today is White Ribbon Day and also begins 16 Days of Activism against domestic violence. The Clothesline Project aims to spark discussion, educate the community, and show support for people who have been affected by domestic violence.  There are t-shirts hanging up around Post Adelaide and Semaphore sharing messages of support from community members created at programs run across PAE community centres. As part of our activism for this project we are collecting donations for the Western Adelaide Domestic Violence Service. Donation boxes can be found at the Civic Centre and all PAE community centres and libraries from 25 November to 10 December. Donations items needed include nappies, baby wipes, sticker books, pencils/texts, bubbles, colouring in books, activity books, art and craft books, gift vouchers for supermarkets, and fuel vouchers. We appreciate any and all donations.

Today is International Men’s Day, a global initiative reminding us of the importance of promoting and encouraging men’s health and wellbeing. We spoke to some of our people in the PAE office to find out how they champion men’s health and prioritise their own physical and mental wellbeing. MEET STEPHEN (left) AND CRAIG (right) This year Craig started cycling to work to boost his physical activity and help the environment. Craig prioritises his mental health at work by taking "time out to share your stories and have a laugh” with colleagues at work. Stephen has been fundraising for men’s health charities this November, culminating in a 50km run this weekend with his colleague Joel, the pair are on track to meet their target of raising $2,000. Stephen was motivated to get involved in fundraising to “encourage men to talk about health issues” and said his preparation for the run started slow. "I could not run at first. I started with a slow jog, slowly built, celebrated the small wins, and set goals. I kept it regular and disciplined, and it doesn’t feel good when I don’t run," "Running takes you to some beautiful places, we are so lucky to live in SA.” These are just two examples of how the many men of PAE are helping achieve the International Men’s Day vision of positive male role models, building healthier communities and creating a healthier future.
