After witnessing firsthand, the of impact of Reids silent suicide on so many young lives, when I was approached to become a part of the Trust, it was simply “Why Not”?

Being a part of an organisation driven to ensure that mental health support is at the fingertips of those who need it the most simply makes sense to me and I’m committed to working with the trust to ensure that we provide not only Hawkes Bay but all on New Zealand with real time mental health initiatives that work.  

Through assisting schools to implement tools that are designed to focus on student’s wellbeing and that provide a safe and easily accessible form of communication, we are providing real time support that we know will work. 

My hope is that if you are reading this you will join us on the journey and help in any way you can big or small. Everything we do today supports our youth tomorrow and beyond.
