World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day – October 10 — is a day for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy. An initiative of the World Federation for Mental Health to raise public awareness of mental health issues worldwide.

Mental Health Australia is delighted to be leading the World Mental Health Day campaign in Australia. As the peak not-for-profit organisation representing the mental health sector in Australia, Mental Health Australia has a focus on ensuring the whole community recognises the part we all play in creating a mentally healthy society.

Do You See What I See? challenges perceptions about mental illness in Australia and encourages everyone to look at mental health in a more positive light, in an effort to reduce stigma and make way for more people to seek the help and support they deserve. Help reduce stigma and make a #MentalHealthPromise today.

You can now issue Purchase Orders (POs) and Works Orders (WOs) electronically.

These tools have been built into Hutchies' Appian platform. This cuts down on duplication and helps track purchases better.

POs & WOs kick off our transition to digital contracts and simplified vendor engagement. We'll share more on the other new tools shortly
