October is Mental Health Month. Our last meeting was an Australian Rotary Health "Hat Day" function aimed at raising money for the Lift the Lid campaign. 100% of the money raised goes directly to research helping the one in five Australians affected by depression, anxiety, schizophrenia and other illnesses. Fun was had by all during the evening, including the huge floppy hats, the ear drum bursting beasts and the infamous wine toss. I am pleased to announce that the Club raised $404.60 during the night for the Lift the Lid campaign.
