Celebrating World Mental Health Day in Ferndale

While many of the conclusions drawn at an event for World Mental Health Day were less than positive, experts, counsellors and those living with mental health conditions found reason to celebrate the day and pledge their support to others who need it.

The SA Federation for Mental Health offices in Ferndale were abuzz on October 10, though many said they should not just recognise the importance of mental health on the day or during World Mental Health Awareness Month, but all year round.

The group networked and agreed to stay in touch as they implemented various projects, support groups and events in the future.
