What We Do
We provide free workshops in schools and clubs that allow young people to talk about their challenges without judgement and providing strategies to build emotional muscle with peer support.
Why We Do It
Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged 15-44. 75% of all mental illness will develop before the age of 25. Support and education is vital and we believe early intervention is the best chance for positive change.
Positive Change
We aim to change stereotypes, reach out, talk deeply, and save lives. We want to show young people they are not alone and foster an inclusive, supportive, and honest environment.
Our Vision
Every young person in Western Australia will have the chance to participate in a Kai Fella workshop delivered through our partner Tomorrow People.
How To Help
We are 100% run by volunteers. Your donation will go straight to the front line. Each participant costs $25 and each workshop costs $625. Help our youth live more fully today and donate.

Building support, disrupting stereotypes, courage to talk deeply, get good help, and live fully
Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged 15-44. 75% of all mental illness develops before the age of 25. What if there was a way we could avoid all that suffering and the associated tragic choices made. Having lost Kai, we'll always wonder what we could have done differently. The only conclusion is that there was little else we could have done when Kai reached crisis point. We wish there had been some early intervention available before he reached that point of no return.
At Kai Fella we support a peer based program. The program starts to build the skills so that our youth can navigate mental illness and crises that they or loved ones will inevitably endure in life. It’s a vital piece of education that is not available in our schools today.
Your donation will go directly to support the delivery of the program.

Lachie challenged himself to run a marathon, and he's not only gone and completed it, but he's also raised $3000 for us in the process!
That equals 6 workshops that can now be run, helping young people build emotional muscle and learn to have open conversations.
Lachie has changed the lives of so many people and families through his fundraising efforts. A massive THANK YOU from everyone at Kai Fella! We truly respect and appreciate all that you do.

Did you know that many mental health professionals recommend trying to keep a diary to help process how you are feeling?
Knowing where to start can be quite tricky and may put you off. However, we have found a company that can help you on your writing journey @mindjournal.
They state that they use 'a system of guided exercises and our signature Check-In Tool, the Journal will give you the structure and support you need to build a powerful journaling habit that will transform your life.'
Do you keep a journal? We'd love to hear how you made it into a daily or weekly habit and if it helps you, so please leave some tips or comment below 👇

“I wish Kai Fella had been available when I was at school. Maybe I wouldn’t have waited so long before reaching out for help.
I am proud to be part of a group that provides positive change, reduces stigma, breaks stereotypes and creates emotional support networks.
I have a career in property, am a husband, and the father of three incredible young boys who I love spending time with, especially in the water.

@tomorrowman_au’s “Breaking the Man Code” two-hour workshops can be delivered face to face or virtually.
They are run by highly experienced facilitators in a non-judgemental environment, offering a chance for young men to have an open conversation about the state of masculinity today.
“A great experience to get to know things about people we wouldn’t usually talk about and an experience that you’ll take with you for the rest of your life.” – A Workshop Participant.
We need your help to run more workshops and reach more young people at risk. Please visit our website, link in bio 🔗.
Humans are herd animals and we thrive on connecting with others 👯.
It is important that if you are struggling with your mental health that you reach out to someone you trust or a medical professional.
A problem shared is a problem halved.
We'd love to know how you connect with others, do you love going on walks together or chilling at home watching a movie? Tell us in the comments below 👇

The Tomorrow Man and Tomorrow Woman Perth CBD SPEAK SPEAK UP workshop was attended by an appreciative crowd in May.
This free experiential workshop was run by highly experienced facilitators, providing an opportunity for both men and women to unpack traditional gender roles and to open up, encouraging self-confidence and collective empathy.
There were many laughs, lots of engagement, and valuable sharing of practical tools to enable people to learn how to hold deeper conversations with friends, family, colleagues, and within the Perth community.
With special appreciation and thanks to Dan Sweet and @tomorrowman_au and @tomorrowwoman_au.
Claire Eardley who proudly represented Kai Fella at the event commented “It was amazing to experience how very powerful these sessions are. I encourage everyone to get involved and to support these workshops so that more people can benefit from them.”

Did you know that crying is actually good for you 🥹?
As a phenomenon that is unique to humans, crying is a natural response to a range of emotions, from deep sadness and grief to extreme happiness and joy.
Researchers have established that crying releases oxytocin and endogenous opioids, also known as endorphins. These feel-good chemicals help ease both physical and emotional pain. So the next time you feel like you need to cry, we encourage you to let it ALL OUT 😭! You'll feel better for it, and it's good for your health.
