Not a medical service
Forge facilitators are not medical practitioners, psychologists, or registered therapists acting in those capacities during the program. Nothing provided through Forge — verbal, written, or digital — should be interpreted as medical, psychological, or psychiatric advice.

Consult your professional
Before participating, consult your treating GP or specialist if you have any cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, respiratory, neurological, or mental health condition. Continue any prescribed treatment and medication throughout the program.

You must disclose all relevant conditions during application. Failure to disclose may compromise your safety and may result in withdrawal from the program without refund.

Mental health
Forge involves reflective work that can surface emotional content. It is not appropriate for individuals in acute crisis or those for whom group reflective work has been clinically discouraged. If you are in crisis, contact Lifeline 13 11 14 or 000 immediately.
