• Charles Sturt and the Black Dog Institute host mental health and wellbeing workshop

Charles Sturt University Alumni and the Black Dog Institute are hosting an event designed to improve the mental health and wellbeing of the community.

The Breaking Down Depression and Building Resilience presentation was meant to be held at the National Wine and Grape Industry Centre in Wagga Wagga but has been moved to an online event due to the latest COVID-19 restrictions.

The presenter will share their experience with mental illness and provide insight on signs and symptoms to watch for, when and where to seek help, and practical strategies for helping a family member or friend.

Charles Sturt Alumni Relations Coordinator Ms Sheridan Ingold said maintaining good mental health is important, especially in times like these.

“It is wonderful to be able to work with the BlackDog Institute and give our community the opportunity to participate in this workshop,” she said.

The event will take place online on Thursday 1 July from 4pm to 6pm.
