15.01.2022 Alrighty ladies and gentlemen, the boys are returning for another year of fundraising for mental health. This year the same great cause remains, but they have swapped the mos for mullets and taking part in Black Dog Institutes #mulletsformentalhealth 1 in 5 of us will experience symptoms of mental illness in any given year. In Australia thats around 5 million people. And roughly 60% of these people wont seek help. For the next few weeks they will be sporting a mullet and... raising funds to show support for mental health research. Please donate and support their mullets and empower everyone in Australia to look after their mental health. https://www.teamblackdog.org.au//st/mulletsformentalhealth

This is equal to 2 in 10, which means that you can get your thumb and pinkie fingers painted blue by our leaders for 50 cents. The thumb and pinkie will be painted to remind us to call/contact someone when we arent okay. We have more events throughout Mental Health Week so stay tuned!
