Last week ten Live4Life youth ambassadors met with Prince Harry and Meghan to share their experiences of growing up in regional Australia at the "Regional & Rural Youth Voices: Shaping the Future of Mental Health" forum at Swinburne University of Technology, coordinated by batyr.

Brilliant to see so many past Crew members demonstrating the power of young people who've been through the Live4Life program to lead the conversation on how to improve youth mental health and prevent su***de in rural and regional communities. Live4Life's Youth and Community Engagement Coordinator Bridie and Live4Life Crew Champions Laura and Talon co-facilitated the workshop.

Mental health advocacy is a key priority of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Archewell Philanthropies and Live4Life stands alongside 𝘣𝘢𝘵𝘺𝘳 in calling for greater investment in youth mental health prevention programs. That need is particularly acute in rural and regional communities where the su***de rate is more than 50% higher than metropolitan areas, and where 6 out of 10 young people cannot access the services they need. Live4Life was designed in 2010 to address this exact need and today provides an evidence-based, youth-centred program in 12 rural communities across Victoria and in Tasmania.

A big thank you to our friends at 𝘣𝘢𝘵𝘺𝘳 for creating this opportunity for young people to have their voices amplified on the world stage.

Elizabeth - "Being able to meet so many likeminded people who are so passionate about mental health and being able to be vulnerable with each other was a big highlight for me."

Nearly there! Just ONE WEEK left for our Hike4Life community to reach their kilometre and fundraising goals.

In three weeks, these awesome walkers for youth mental health have achieved an amazing amount and now is when all that hard work pays off.

There’s going to be a LOT of action on the footpaths, trails and offroad tracks this week. Every step, every donation, every conversation matters. You can support one of these incredible people. Just hop on over to www.hike4life.org.au and put some wind in their sails for the final push.
