Project title:
Bottling it up? Mental Health Communication Tool

Activity information & objectives:
This initiative provides a pathway to mental health service information for the north-west and Sunraysia region of Victoria.

The Mallee Regional Innovation Centre’s drought consultations process identified a need to provide access to mental health support services and information. A drink holder was designed with a QR code linking to the Sunraysia Mallee mental health services promotional guide provided by the Murray Primary Health Network.

Drink holder

The delivery tool for this information was designed to be discrete, accessible and innovative.

The release of the drink holders was aligned with Men’s Mental Health Week (12–18 June 2023). Holders were given to attendees at the Mallee Regional Innovation Centre’s Innovation Showcase events held in Swan Hill, Euston and Mildura from 13-15 June.
