“WA Cricket and Healthway partnership and their “Think Mental Health” campaign”
Sports play a vital role in promoting and maintaining positive mental health. Chris will talk through WA Cricket’s partnership with Healthway promoting the Think Mental Health campaign. This includes current health promotion approaches, relevant milestones so far, and future objectives of the campaign. This will be combined with a discussion on the importance of using sports as an avenue to address barriers that people – especially men – face towards seeking help for mental wellbeing, such as increasing social capital, decreasing stigma, and empowering clubs to place wellbeing at the forefront of conversations.
