GP down south and the Waroona and Pinjarra Football clubs came together last weekend in a show of support to raise awareness of mental health in the local community.
 
The Peel Mobile Health Service and GP down south staff attended the Waroona vs Pinjarra match on Sunday 4th August to increase awareness of services that were available to help those struggling with mental illness.

Using prominent sporting clubs in the community was highlighted as a successful way to break down some barriers for people who are suffering from mental health issues but might not know what support is on offer.
 
GP down south thanks both Waroona and Pinjarra football clubs for the opportunity to promote mental health awareness and to decrease the stigma associated with mental health illnesses.
