Run for Mental Health Ltd is a charitable institution whose principal purpose is to promote the prevention and control of diseases in human beings, focusing primarily on mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety.
We will do this through the following key pillars:
– CONNECT: delivering community-based mental health services through provision of regular places to meet and connect.
– PROMOTE: promoting mental health and improve public awareness of mental disease, so that people have greater knowledge, feel safe to talk openly about their issues and are supported to ask for help when they need to.
– SUPPORT: building capacity for people experiencing mental health distress to share their knowledge and experience with the wider community and raising awareness of the need to conduct research into the causes of mental health illnesses and identify preventative actions and management solutions for mental health.
We are located in Melbourne and operate nationally with our flagship annual Run the Tan event and Run Club community engagement initiatives.
