Talk About It Mate
Talk About It Mate
Talk About It, Mate is a peer-support community where people can connect, share and learn from each other. Mike is the founder and with growing popularity Talk About It, Mate has grown into a Social Enterprise with an amazing opportunity to change the way we approach mental health on a personal and societal level. They have expanded to workshops and facilitation, peer-support safe talk spaces, mental health education in schools, and counselling services.
Fortunately, I have the privilege to collaborate with such a wonderful organisation in conducting art community workshops, to inspire people to be able to create artistic coping mechanisms towards their mental health and build friendships as well as build a sense of community. Below are some of the works and people that benefit from Mine (as an artist) and Talk About It, Mate (Mike) efforts in bettering the community's mental health.
As an additional appreciation, I would like to thank ForHousing for their funding in making this possible.
