What we do
We offer free, evidence-based training and local volunteer experiences that build confidence, compassion and connection. Through digital-first education, social media storytelling and inclusive events, we’re creating a generation of ‘Good Mates’ who know how to show up, speak up, and stay well, together.
Training
Our training is Australia’s first digital peer-to-peer mental health first aid training certificate and it takes only around 60 minutes to complete. It’s free and it's designed by a team of mental health professionals to resonate with younger audiences.
Cause Club
We’re building a national club for everyday legends doing good things, together, one local event at a time. You don't need to do everything. But you can do something.
Our work
Cause Club
VideosCause Club is the first-of-its-kind community where young people meet to actually make a difference, no pressure, all impact. Not a run club. Not a book club. Not another night at the pub. At our first event, 50 people showed up and made 250+ toys for rescue animals, donated 50kg of food, and left feeling connected, hopeful, and full of purpose.

Good Mate TrainingLaunch of 'Connection is Prevention'
Videos‘Connection is Prevention’ is a national report showing that disconnection, loneliness, and cost of living are *crushing* young Australians’ futures. With @foundation4socialhealth, (and a bunch of epic mental health leaders) we’re calling on the next government to fund connection - by building a Social Health Network across cafes, mental health pubs, gyms, sporting clubs and pharmacies.
