Christmas can be a time for love, laughter, families and friendship but for some it can be a time of incredible sadness, loneliness and despair.

If you are able please check on your friends and neighbours who may not have the love, family support or the money to provide for themselves or their families. A small gift of home made cookies, a packet of mince pies or a home made meal might just make all the difference to someone you know.

The Board, Staff and Members of GFS Perth would like to wish you all a very happy and safe Christmas and 2024  

GFS Perth is the independent local expression of a pioneer global movement spanning 29 countries. We are an inclusive not-for-profit enabling friendship and belonging that inspires people to thrive.

Recent research tells us that a typical Australian has half the FRIENDS and knows less than half the neighbours compared to 1980s and had no one they felt they could trust to confide in. 3 in 10 say they hardly ever or never catch up with FRIENDS. Half say they are lonely a lot. Within a generation the share of Australians who live alone has doubled.
148 studies with 310k people over 7.5 years showed loneliness and lack of connection was a bad for health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day! AND those with FRIENDS had a 50% better chance of being healthy, lived up to 10 years longer and were of course MUCH happier.
ALL THIS in a country that holds MATESHIP as a core value!
WE believe its time for a FRIENDSHIP REVOLUTION because we SOOOOOO need it AND we are asking you to join us to make it happen.
Join us and lets change the world with a FRIENDSHIP REVOLUTION.
