Acknowledgement of Country I acknowledge the Whadjuk Noongar people, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which I live and work in the Perth Hills, and I pay my respects to their Elders past and present. I extend that respect to the Traditional Custodians of the lands across Australia where the therapists in our community live, work and care for families. Sovereignty was never ceded. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
