Host an event
We encourage you to organize a World’s Biggest Mental Health Check-in event for your office, site, or team.
Hosting an event is a great way to bring people together to check in, reconnect, and share stories about mental health and resilience.
The event is yours to host in a way that is meaningful to you and your team. You might organise a check-in over lunch, a morning/afternoon tea, a fun activity or come together to broadcast one of our online live events. Think about what you can do and how you can encourage everyone to take a mental health check-in on October 10.
Register your event via our contact form – we’d love to hear your plans!
