On Monday our staff headed out to Yarrabah to visit Paper Bark Arts and Cultural Tours to immerse ourselves in the community, it's history and culture. Paperbark Arts and Cultural Tours is locally owned by Elverina Johnson who had the wonderful help of her son BJ and family members in welcoming us to their land and guiding us through the day.

Yarrabah is the traditional country of the Gunggandji and Mandingalbay Yidinji people and is the largest First Nations community in Australia and has one of the largest First Nations population. They run as their own local shire with a mayor and councillors who work with the community in making sure that their history, traditional practices and culture is passed down through their generations.

The headspace Cairns team felt honoured to spend the day with Elverina and her son BJ and learn about the amazing culture and history.
