All of us at Sirens of Silence Charity would like to extend our appreciation and assistance to all frontline Emergency Services personnel right now dealing with loss due to the major fire disasters in VIC and NSW,
we are here to assist you when you’re ready.

We understand you’re busy trying to save lives, homes and land, but just know that in the coming weeks, months and years we’ll be here for you to help keep your spirits up and your minds peaceful.

Sirens of Silence Charity board members have unanimously voted to pledge a donation up to $50,000 to the frontline emergency service personnel involved in the fires from New South Wales and Victoria.
The funds will be directed to support mental health programs, education and treatment in the recovery and maintenance of our hard working heroic personnel.

If you would like to assist our mission and help us fundraise in addition to the pledged $50k, we will ensure all of your hard earned dollars are directed to the frontline in the recovery time to come, no matter how long it takes to ensure all personnel are supported today and into the future.

Art Therapy with Ingrid Windram

Ingrid Windram - Artist and Windram Art are now providing members of Sirens of Silence Charity an exclusive opportunity to "See Art Differently" and unleash your creative.

Art Therapy is a holistic approach to promoting one’s physical, mental and emotional well-being, by utilising art materials and the creative process of expression. This is conducted in a safe supportive environment, with no judgement about the person or their art, good or bad is irrelevant, it’s about you and your well-being.

The goal of art therapy is to explore self- expression and by doing so, gain insights, to facilitate the development of new coping skills, increase one’s self–esteem, and improve clarity, empowering clients to achieve positive outcomes.
