How do we move the needle on mental health outcomes? Join Alastair Campbell and leading experts to explore what can be done to influence the appropriate responses at social and political level.

Known for his role as communications director for former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Tony Blair, Alastair Campbell has emerged as a prominent advocate for mental health action around the world.

Alastair will open with brief reflections, and then joined on stage by youth mental health leaders Tanya Dearle and Zsofi de Haan, The Hon. Minister Rose Jackson MLC (NSW Minister for Mental Health, and Youth), business leader Sam Mostyn AO (Chair of Beyond Blue). Our esteemed panel will explore ways of moving forward and creating action to enhance mental health services and outcomes for all. Professor Ian Hickie AO, Co-director of Health and Policy at Brain and Mind Centre, hosts this event.

After official proceedings, we invite you to continue the conversation over light refreshments.

This event is co-presented with Brain and Mind Centre and Matilda Centre.
