Mental health issues are often shrouded in misconceptions and stigma. Raising mental health awareness is an important initiative to improve understanding and increase access to services for those who need it.

The Walk for Youth Mental Health 2024 is inviting U3A Manningham members to take part and show their support for this important community wellbeing project. This FREE event is hosted by Mental Health Foundation Australia in partnership with Rotary Manningham City and will be held at Finns Reserve, Templestowe Road, Lower Templestowe on Sunday, 24 March at 10:00 am – 12:00 pm.

After the walk, stay back for some fun activities such as craft and food stalls until 5.00 pm at the Finns Family Festival.
