Story

You think that talking about how you’re feeling is challenging? Try not talking at all.

We’re throwing down the challenge: On June 13, go silent for 24, 48 or 72 hours - all to raise awareness and funds for men’s mental health and suicide prevention.

For you, starting a conversation might be an easy thing to do, but for lots of blokes, taking that step isn't always the easiest thing to do. Too many young blokes reach a point in their life where they think that taking their own life is a better easier than talking about how they’re feeling - and we think that needs to change. 

Get Silent. Get Heard. is here to say (very loudly) that although starting a conversation might not be the easiest thing to do, staying silent is a lot harder.
