We will be hosting a ‘Human Library’ event for people to tell their stories and educate the community on the importance of mental health. The ‘books’ will be either those effected by mental health, or those who have experienced it themselves. Each individual will be able to ‘borrow’ their ‘book’ for 15 minutes at a time, and places are running out fast.

The individuals available for ‘loan’:

-          A male suffering PTSD and Depression

-          A new mother who experienced post-natal depression

-          A woman who lost her brother to suicide

-          A mental health advocate from ‘Beyond Blue’
