HALT Toolbox Talks at KANE

By ggadminFebruary 23, 2019No Comments

We’ve had a busy couple of days! HALT partnered with KANE Constructions to attend 6 sites in Victoria over 2 days. We presented to over 500 tradies across the two days at Barwon Health North Hospital, Point Cook School, University of Melbourne Old Quad & MSE, Melbourne East Police Station, Geelong Performing Arts Centre and Royal Melbourne Hospital. Whew! We always thoroughly enjoy getting out and talking to so many people, and we thought we’d share some moments with you.

OUR EVENTS

HALT is passionate about providing tradies with the tools to have tough conversations about mental health and to support their mates when they’re going through challenging times.

Our ‘Save Your Bacon’ brekkies and other events are delivered in person or online to tradies in their workplaces, hardware stores, sporting clubs, Men’s Sheds, TAFEs and emergency services
across Australia.

Participants will leave the event with increased knowledge, confidence and skills in the following key areas:

• Myths surrounding mental health issues and suicide
• How to be a good listener and have a “tough conversation” with yourself or your mate
• How to access local and national support services
• Ways to support your own wellbeing

Talk to us today about hosting a ‘Save Your Bacon’ Brekky or other event at your workplace, club or organisation. We can cater our events specifically to meet the needs of your team, at a time that suits you.

HOPE ASSISTANCE LOCAL TRADIES

HALT builds the bridge between both local and national support services for people at risk of suicide in the local community.

That is, to facilitate the spreading of information and raise awareness of groups such as Lifeline and Beyond Blue, open up conversations and break through the stigma attached to mental health.

We have identified a need for greater support for people at risk, especially men in ‘tradie’ occupations, although we recognise the need for such support is broad.

HALT's vision is that every tradie in Australia knows how to look after their mental health and wellbeing.
