Hat Day, Australian Rotary Health's annual national mental health research fundraising event is now less than 4 weeks away. 

Even though COVID-19 may have disrupted many events this year, there are still some ways you can get involved in Hat Day this October to help #Liftthelidonmentalillness

If you would like to get involved, visit the Hat Day website for some COVID-safe ideas and promotional material. Make sure you register too!

If you have any enquiries, email: news@arh.org.au 

Tickets are now on sale for our LIFT THE LID WALK events at MOOLOOLABA and BRIBIE ISLAND!

This is such a great way to fundraise for much needed mental health research! 

The benefits of participating in these LIFT THE LID WALK events go beyond supporting a good cause!

Getting involved in physical activity such as walking can have benefits such as:
• improving sleep patterns
• changing levels of chemicals in the brain, such as serotonin, endorphins or stress hormones
• interrupting negative thoughts that make depression worse
• increasing perceived coping ability
• socialising with others, if the exercise is done in a group.
