A photographer will be present at the event but will check with you before taking a photo. You are welcome to say you would prefer not to be included and this will be respected. Photos may be used in our social media, on the Shelter WA website and in our marketing, e-newsletters and annual reports. There may be some whole of event photos taken from behind that will not identify individuals.

Are you attending with a support worker? Please ask them to register separately so that we provide enough seating and catering for everyone attending the event in person. When registering your support worker you can use Support Worker in place of their name for registration purposes.

If you plan to attend more than one Shelter WA event, please note that registrations are required for each individual event hosted across Homelessness Week.

Be part of the final conversations that will shape our collective action going forward. Reserve your spot now and contribute to a meaningful change!

We look forward to welcoming you soon,

The Shelter WA Homelessness Week event team
