Perinatal Mental Health Week is a reminder that the journey into parenthood can be joyful, overwhelming, and everything in between. And for many families, those emotions can come with extra challenges.

Every year, thousands of new mums and dads experience anxiety, depression, or other perinatal mental health concerns. It’s far more common than many people realise and nothing to be ashamed of.

This year’s theme, “What you need, when you need it,” highlights how vital timely, compassionate support can be. A listening ear, practical strategies, or simply having someone understand what you’re going through can make a world of difference.

At the Bathurst Medicare Mental Health Centre, you don’t need a referral or an appointment - just walk in. If you’re finding things tough, you’re not alone, and support is here when you’re ready.

What a fantastic day at the Bathurst NAIDOC March! 💛❤️🖤
Even the wind couldn’t stop the fun or dampen the community spirit! It was wonderful to see everyone come together to celebrate culture, connection and pride.

The fruit, water and iceblocks were a huge hit 🍉💧🍦

A big thank you to the amazing organisers and everyone who came along and helped make the day so special.

A big thank you to Paul Toole MP for visiting our Bathurst Medicare Mental Health Centre today.

Paul joined us to highlight the importance of our centre, along with other fantastic local services, in supporting the wellbeing of our community and to help kick off Mental Health Month. 💚

It’s so valuable to have community leaders who recognise the need for safe, inclusive spaces where people can seek support and connection.

Together, we can continue to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and encourage open conversations about mental health.

Taking the first step towards better mental health can feel overwhelming, but every journey begins with just one small action. Whether it’s reaching out for a chat, learning a new coping skill, or simply taking a deep breath, those little steps create real change over time.

The team at the Bathurst Medicare Mental Health Centre are here to walk alongside you whenever you’re ready. No referral needed - just pop in or give us a call on 1800 595 212.

Today we acknowledge World Su***de Prevention Day. A time to come together, raise awareness, and support one another.

This year’s theme, “Changing the Narrative,” reminds us that every conversation matters. By breaking down stigma, listening without judgment, and showing compassion, we can all help create a community where people feel safe to reach out for support.

At the Bathurst Medicare Mental Health Centre, we’re committed to walking alongside our community in building hope and connection. If you or someone you know is struggling, please know that help is available, and reaching out can make a real difference.

Let’s change the narrative together - from silence to support, from stigma to understanding, and from isolation to connection.

📞 If you need immediate support, you can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or the Su***de Call Back Service on 1300 659 467.
