Thick Timber Slabs for Indigenous Carving & Men's Mental Health Healing Circle

We are seeking the donation of a thick, sturdy slab of hardwood (such as mahogany, cedar, ironbark, or similar carving-grade timber) to support a self-funded Men’s Healing and Art Circle. This grassroots group serves as a vital mental health support network for local men experiencing trauma, grief, and emotional distress. Through our "Music and the Mind" and cultural art programs, we guide participants to process strong emotions, sit with difficult feelings. Carving traditional Indigenous artifacts provides these men with a powerful, physical medium to release stored tension from the body and externalise their internal struggles into an expressive art form. This self-funded initiative relies entirely on community generosity to keep running. Your donation of a timber slab will directly provide a therapeutic outlet, foster cultural connection, and support the ongoing mental health recovery of men in our community who have no other access to these resources
