PROJECT BENEFITS
This is a great project because it:
-
Raises much-needed funds for ARH Mental Health Research.
Today’s research is tomorrow’s treatment and cures
2. Offers an opportunity to raise awareness of and support to those in our
community experiencing mental health issues
3. Helps break down the barriers and stigma associated with mental health ​

​“ABOUT THE WALK”
Originally the Rotary Club of Mooloolaba together with a number of other Rotary Clubs on the Sunshine Coast has for the past three years, staged a WALK FOR MENTAL HEALTH in October to coincide with Queensland Mental Health Month.
​​
The “point of difference” is that the walk is not a race. It is a family occasion offering an
organised “fun” event, the chance to chat, get some exercise and fresh air!
​
The inaugural Walk was held in October 2016 and has grown to include 26 clubs, hundreds of participants and raised in excess of $150,000 for mental health research so far.
This year our exciting new look LIFT THE LID WALK for Mental Health will be held in many community locations across Australia including our inaugural WA events.
