The Zonta Club of Mount Barker – Walk for Mental Health and Wellbeing
The Zonta Club of Mount Barker will host a Walk for Mental Health and Wellbeing on Sunday, 18th April 2021, 10am-12.30pm. Following 2020, with the bushfires, and then Covid-19 affecting everyone in one way or another, it is important we check in on those around us, to ensure they are doing ok. The walk is about empowering ourselves to know what to say after asking someone “RU OK?”. Its aim is to remind people too that is important to let people know if you aren’t doing too well, and it is ok, and healthy to share how you are feeling with someone you can trust. Fresh air and exercise are of course good for our health and wellbeing, as is coming together as a community. It is family event, with the walk commencing from Laratinga Wetlands and following the Linear Park Trail to the Rotunda in Keith Stephenson Park. At the Rotunda, Cliff Sweetman from the Strathalbyn and Communities Suicide Prevention Network, will talk about and empower participants on what to say after asking “RU OK?” We will also hear from Chris Savvy of “RU OK?”. Tickets can be booked on line at $10/each via Trybooking.com (with concession pricing available) and include registration, Zonta wristband, refreshments, discussion by Cliff Sweetman and Cliff Savvy and BBQ lunch. Thanks to the Flinders University Rural Health South Australian Community Partnership Grant, Zonta Club of Mount Barker will not only hold the Walk for Mental Health and Wellbeing in April, but also a Mental Health Forum later in the year. For bookings go to https://www.trybooking.com/BPGLPfor more information, contact Michelle Warwick, President of Zonta Club of Mount Barker on 0476 472 802. |
