Sonder has been appointed as the new lead agency for headspace Whyalla.

We want to acknowledge Country & Outback Health Inc , who have provided support for young people in the Whyalla community.

Our focus will be on building on what’s already in place and working closely with the local community, staff and partners to make sure young people continue to have access to the support they need.

If you or someone you know is already accessing support at headspace Whyalla, you can feel confident that care will continue as usual, with the same welcoming approach and no disruption to your support.

headspace Whyalla will continue to deliver the core headspace service model, ensuring young people aged 12 to 25 have access to free and confidential supports across mental health, physical and sexual health, alcohol and other drugs, and work and study. This will continue to evolve over time, guided by local need, community voice, and emerging priorities.

💚 MEET OUR MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS ROUND AMBASSADORS! 💚

Meet Jacob, Teacher & Football Player/Coach, and Nic, Teacher - two incredible community members who have joined us to share their perspectives on mental health, vulnerability and connection. 🗣️

🎙️ Tune in to hear Jacob and Nic speak openly about their own experiences, their unique perspectives on men’s mental health, and why checking in with yourself and the people around you is so important.

Mental Health Matters Round may be over, but checking in on your mates, talking about mental health and creating space for honest conversations should continue. 💚

Our goal has always been to unite our community, break down stigma and encourage meaningful conversations and we hope you’ll continue carrying that message forward in whatever way works for you. Whether it’s within your sporting club, friendship group, family, workplace or wider community, every conversation matters.

A huge thank you to Jacob and Nic for being so open, honest and vulnerable with us. Your contribution to Mental Health Matters Round has been astronomical, and we’re so grateful to have you both as part of the movement. 💚

The round might be over, but the conversation doesn’t have to be. 🫶
