‘Lip-Stick It’ to women’s mental health issues

Australia’s trusted source and respected leader in women’s mental health, the Liptember Foundation, is challenging men to ‘Lip-Stick It’ to women’s mental health issues on May 11. In a new, Australian-first fundraiser, Lip-Stick It encourages men across the nation to wear bright coloured lipstick on 11 May, get sponsored by their family and friends; and put their money where their mouth is by raising much-needed funds for women’s mental health support services. Lip-Stick It is about being seen, challenging social norms and not being embarrassed to stand behind the women you love - bringing a new level of awareness for the unique challenges that women face in the mental health space.

R U OK? in Trucks and Sheds

National Day of Action – 16 May 2023 R U OK? and Healthy Heads in Truck & Sheds have teamed up to ensure people in the road transport, warehousing and logistics industries know when and how to meaningfully connect and genuinely ask “are you OK?” of those in their workplace who might be struggling with life. Together, the two mental health promotion charities have launched ‘R U OK? in Truck & Sheds’, an industry-wide movement to drive conversations in the workplace. Workplaces in these industries are encouraged to organise their own events and can find a variety of resources at www.healthyheads.org.au/ruok
