Why do we stop talking when it could save someone's life? September is National Suicide Awareness Month. Gentle Path Counselling Services needs your help to keep the conversation going, now more than ever. We are losing friends, family, co-workers, mothers and fathers…we’re even losing our children.

 🌟Mental Health Awareness Week: Supporting Our Community 🌟 Today let’s focus on the power of support within our communities. By supporting small businesses, charities, and our community, we can create a ripple effect of positivity and well-being. 🛍️ Support Small Businesses: Our local businesses are the backbone of our communities. By shopping locally, we not only boost the economy but also foster a sense of belonging and support. 💖 Support Charities: Charities play a crucial role in providing essential services and support to those in need. Consider donating your time, resources, or funds to a cause close to your heart. 👥 Supporting People: Sometimes, the best support we can offer is a simple act of kindness. Reach out to your neighbors, friends, and family. A small gesture can make a big difference. Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive community. Let’s make this Mental Health Awareness Week a time of connection and compassion. 💚 #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #SupportLocal #CommunitySupport #SmallBusinesses #Charity #MentalHealthMatters #totallypsyched

Hey, brainiacs! I'm taking part in the push up challenge for Mental Health. Here are some funny reasons why you should donate to this awesome cause: 1) Because life is hard and people need help to cope 2) Brains are squishy and mushy, but science shows you can reshape them no matter how old you get. 3) Working out keeps me sane, so I won't freak out at you 4) It's the biggest fundraising event for mental health in Australia 5) Stick one to the man and get some money back for doing good! The Push for Better Foundation is a legit charity in Australia and you can claim your donation on your taxes. (ABN 49645093349) 6) I also put my money where my mouth is, so you know it's good stuff.

Students at University of St. Thomas are heavily engaged in the Negotiating with Positive Influence course to drive the Common Good impact within our communities. If you are interested in learning more, please see the post below on how you can get engaged to help drive impact with Kate Kapsner.

Mental health is a cornerstone of overall well-being, yet it is often overlooked or stigmatized in our fast-paced world. Just as we prioritize physical health, caring for our mental health is as essential. Both are a continuous journey of self-awareness, self-care, and growth. Bell Let’s talk Day is a good reminder that it’s okay to not be okay, and every conversation, every act of kindness, and every moment of self-care matters.

Did you wake up today and feel like life is just not worth living? Well, I hope not. But just for a moment as you read that question, you might have glimpsed an insight into the dark world that many people suffering from mental health disorders can face on a daily basis. And unlike the physical health ups and downs that we all experience as a normal part of life, untreated mental health issues can spread like its inky blackness to all corners of a person's life for many years. There are many noble causes to champion, but it is the invisible and life long suffering that I have seen in good people with mental health issues that really concerns me, and especially young people in the complex world we have created for them to live in. I'd like to ask you to help me do something about it. This year is my fourth year leading a team of Port Melbourne legends in the Push Up Challenge. It's a simple thing (sort of). We each do one push up for every life lost to suicide last year over 24 days, and ask you to donate to the cause. Unfortunately that means each of us needs to do 3,249 push-ups, but we will get there! To donate go to my challenge page: https://lnkd.in/gpNeD8DP And of course, you will get a receipt to claim as your donation is tax deductible. My donations are going to Headspace. Even if you don't donate, thanks for reading this far and spending a moment focusing on mental health. Perhaps you know someone to ask RUOK.

At the Randal Charitable Foundation one of our core pillars of support is 'mental ill health', which is why Mental Health Awareness Week is such an important campaign for the life-saving work we deliver with our charitable partners. We focus on supporting causes that provide intervention, which tackles the root causes of mental ill-health. This includes helping people living with severe mental health difficulties to recover and then prosper, as well as providing assistance to young people, families and those who find themselves disadvantaged through no fault of their own. We also support causes which come to the aid of those suffering loneliness and isolation.   Another key focus area is helping the most in need in-order-to prevent suicides, which claim thousands of lives each year in the UK alone. Examples of our work in this area have seen significant support for technology development of a suicide prevention app, the provision of a text service for vulnerable young people and face-to-face appointments with mental health volunteers, as well as support with service and staffing costs to enable the life-saving work of mental health and suicide prevention charities to continue.   Breaking the cycle of addiction, which destroys lives and affects the whole family, is another priority, and our work in this area is helping addicts to recover, and their families to rebuild their lives.
