Nail Art/ Self Care

Dandenong VIC 3175

We are seeking donations to support self-care, wellbeing, and positive self-expression for the young people receiving care within our inpatient unit. Our goal is to create a welcoming "nail salon" space within our group room, providing young people with an opportunity to engage in self-care activities that promote confidence, relaxation, social connection, and a sense of normality during their hospital stay. These activities can offer a positive distraction from the challenges of admission while encouraging self-esteem, creativity, and personal care routines. To help bring this initiative to life, we are seeking donations of items such as: Nail polish and nail art supplies BIAB products and equipment UV/ LED Lamp Nail files and manicure tools Hand creams, cuticle oils, and moisturisers Scented self-care products suitable for young people Beauty and pamper items that support wellbeing and self-care
