💙 Sometimes the simplest acts - walking side by side, sharing a story, or pausing for a cuppa - remind us that we are not alone 💙

On Sunday 19 October, the Mount Barker community will come together for the Out of the Blue Walk. We’ll take a gentle stroll past the Blue Tree and finish with morning tea at the Medicare Mental Health Centre. It’s a chance to reflect, remember, and support one another. It’s also a reminder that conversations about mental health can start anywhere - even on a walk through our town.

When: Sunday 19 October 2025, 9:45am arrival – 11:30am finish

We walk to honour those we have lost.

💜 Friday August 29th is Wear It Purple Day 💜

The Mount Barker Medicare Mental Health Centre (MMHC) staff went purple this week to show our support for LGBTQIA+ youth. Wear it Purple Day promotes awareness and support for young LGBTQIA+ people in response to the overwhelming number of experiences of su***de and suicidality within this community.

At the MMHC we know social connection is a great way to support ourselves and each other. Especially those from marginalized community groups such as the LGBTQIA+ community. This is why we proudly partner with the Mount Barker Community Centre to deliver our LGBTQIA+ community group, run by staff with lived experience.

Wear It Purple Day is a day designed to advocate for and empower rainbow young people, as well as celebrate and promote the value of diversity and inclusion in community settings. It was founded by LGBTQIA+ young people in Sydney in 2010, following international reports of an “epidemic” of gay youth su***des. You can learn more about the history of the day by watching this video -https://youtu.be/aUFMvZ3l16E?si=7oyLLU8HORbeL6kg.
