A new Lifeline mega store will open in Augustine Heights, Greater Springfield, bringing shopping opportunities and support for vital crisis services to the local community.
New Store for Greater Springfield

According to community announcements, Lifeline Shops Queensland is establishing a large store in Augustine Heights, next to Total Tools. The new shop promises to offer a wide range of donated goods, with all proceeds directly supporting Lifeline Queensland’s crisis support services. While an official opening date has not been released, details will be shared with the community once confirmed.
Community members have expressed excitement about the new store, with some eager to donate and shop. One resident, Trudy Grace, shared her positive experience donating to them, noting the rewarding feeling of supporting a worthy cause.
Lifeline’s Commitment to Queenslanders

It is dedicated to ensuring that no one in the state faces their darkest moments alone. The organisation provides various crucial services, including the 24/7 Crisis Support Line (13 11 14), online chat, and a crisis text service.
Beyond immediate crisis support, it also offers community recovery programs to assist those affected by natural disasters and training programs like “Accidental Counsellor.” It operates a network of over 130 Lifeline Shops. Like the upcoming one in Augustine Heights, these shops play a vital role in raising funds for Lifeline’s operations.
Supporting Lifeline’s Mission

Lifeline Queensland’s work is centred on suicide prevention, reducing the stigma surrounding mental health, and empowering individuals and communities to be suicide-safe. They rely heavily on community support to continue their life-saving work.
Public members can contribute by donating money, volunteering their time at shops or events, shopping at Lifeline shops, and organising their own fundraising activities.
Every purchase made at a Lifeline shop directly supports the organisation’s mission. Lifeline Queensland encourages anyone in crisis to seek help, emphasising that their services are confidential and available to all Queenslanders.
