Mindful Margaret River and the Curtin Business School’s School of Marketing have joined forces to assist the development and implementation of a marketing plan for the South West-based wellbeing alliance.

Mindful Margaret River is the second community group to win support from the Shire of Augusta-Margaret River’s $2 million care fund.

“We should take special care to talk to children and old people. Caring is contagious. Caring for each other makes us feel better.”

A newly-formed mental health advocacy group says it will help residents access services and support, and cut through confusion about what’s available to people living in the region.

Community members and health support service providers are being invited to comment on a University of Newcastle and Lishman Foundation report which considers how to better support mental health and wellbeing in the Shire of Augusta Margaret River.
