This World Mental Health Day on October 10th, with the support of Paramount Global, we invite you to turn awareness into ACTION. Apply to start projects that positively impact the mental health and well-being of your community.
Mental Health Community Connect
When people are struggling with their mental health, they often turn to their friends or loved ones for support. This idea allows communities to come together in a safe space with computer and internet access, to utilise two digital tools to collectively empower and up-skill. Learn how you can A.S.K. and earn your #BeThereCertificate, to support the mental health of your loved ones and community.
Use skateboarding activities to break mental health stigma and build community connections through three simple group activities that anyone can participate in, regardless of skating experience.
Create a safe, supportive space where community members share personal stories, poetry, and songs to break mental health stigma and remind everyone they're not alone in their struggles.
Want to have deeper conversations and build stronger connections with your community? Join a growing movement of people exploring mindfulness and connection through shared meals. The Mindful Meals campaign, powered by OpenSeat, provides a simple framework for hosting gatherings encouraging open conversation and support.

By sharing reflections and experiences, we had the opportunity to feel understood and valued on mental health issues, which we don’t normally discuss with each other. This social connection resulted in increased emotional well-being and a greater sense of belonging.
