Beyond Blue is an independent, not-for-profit organisation, working to address issues associated with depression and anxiety in Australia. Its key aims are raising awareness about depression and anxiety, reducing associated stigma, and encouraging people to seek help early.
Beyond Blue couldn’t do what we do without the help and support of the community. There are so many ways you can get involved to help all people in Australia to achieve their best possible mental health.

Book a speaker!
I have been a speaker for over 5 years, and it is very rewarding. I wanted to share my story to increase the community’s understanding about mental health so that we can start a conversation about it.
You can request a free community speaker to share their story in your workplace, school, or community group to raise awareness and reduce stigma. The sharing of personal stories of anxiety and depression is a powerful way to raise awareness, reduce stigma and to encourage help seeking behaviour.
