What is mental health?

Being mentally healthy is essential for overall wellbeing. It’s about being able to take pleasure and satisfaction from life and cope with hassles and challenges.

What influences and protects mental health and wellbeing?

Prevention is key. Engaging in activities that keep us mentally healthy, is the most effective way to improve individual and community mental health and wellbeing.

Being active, having a sense of belonging and having a purpose in life all contribute to good mental health and wellbeing, and builds stronger communities.

It can be so easy for us to take our mental health for granted and to prioritise other things. Grounded in trusted and known protective factors, the Act Belong Commit campaign message promotes the things you can do to protect and support your mental health and wellbeing.
