2024 Mental Health Month Theme
‘Let’s Talk About It’

In NSW, Mental Health Month is observed annually throughout October.

This year’s theme, “Let’s Talk About It,” prompts us all to reflect on our mental health and overall wellbeing, irrespective of whether we’ve personally encountered mental illness. It emphasises the significance of maintaining good mental health in our daily lives and encourages a proactive approach to seeking help when necessary.
