David, a Beyond Blue speaker, shares his journey with mental health to help others

October 6, 2020
Together with Beyond Blue, we aim to lead a positive change in the way Australians talk about mental health, because when we connect, we feel better.​

As part of Mental Health Month, PV committee member David Corduff appears in a video, sponsored by Australia Post and supported by partner Beyond Blue, where he shares his own mental health experience. (See video).

October each year is officially designated as Mental Health Month. October 10th is Mental Health Day, during which a host of events take place to acknowledge this most significant of community issues.  The focus is firmly on reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and publicising the work being done to support those affected by mental illness.  The core message is to maintain a connection with family, friends, colleagues and to be aware if they seem to be struggling with their mental wellness. Simply asking RU OK can potentially prevent a suicide.
