Men’s Health Week is always a big deal for us- and this year is no different -

This year we are partnering up with the City of Stirling for a big 2 days, bringing together local services and the city of Stirling employees for an exhibit held over 2 days - and we’d love to have headspace there!

Tuesday 9 June | 10:00am – 4:00pm
@ Civic centre city of stirling

Thursday 11 June | 10 – 3:30pm

The Expo is designed to connect men and staff at the City Of Stirling - WA's largest city by population with local health services, support networks, and wellbeing resources in an accessible and engaging environment.

We are expecting most of the City of Stirling's Staff across the two days thanks to the City Of Stirling with each department coming in at separate times, providing a strong platform for meaningful community engagement.

Over the weekend we celebrated the 75th birthday of a true West Australian icon, community leader, and mental health champion – Vince Garreffa.

For decades, Vince has been far more than one of WA’s most recognisable personalities. Through his unwavering commitment to community, generosity of spirit, and tireless advocacy, he has touched countless lives across our state.

At a time when loneliness, isolation, and mental health challenges continue to impact so many, Vince has consistently shown us the power of showing up, reaching out, and caring for one another. His leadership reminds us that true strength lies in service, compassion, and community.

On behalf of everyone whose lives have been positively influenced by your work, thank you, Vince, for your dedication, your kindness, and your unwavering belief in people.

We are incredibly proud to announce that we will be honouring Vince as a Mens Talk AU Mental Wellbeing Champion at the upcoming WA Men's Mental Wellbeing Awards—a fitting recognition for a man who has spent so many years championing the wellbeing of others.

Happy 75th Birthday, Vince.

Your legacy continues to inspire us all, and we look forward to celebrating this remarkable milestone and your extraordinary contribution to mental health and community wellbeing in WA.
