Mental Health Week 2015 will be celebrated in Mirrabooka, inviting members of the public to join an interactive journey of wellbeing. This event will run from 10:00am-2:00pm on Wednesday 7 October at Mirrabooka Square and surrounding amphitheatre (weather permitting). This event is supported by WAAMH, and facilitated by various local community agencies, including headspace Osborne Park.

Drumbeats will welcome people who enter the amphitheatre and they will be given the opportunity to try their hand at African drumming. While having fun playing a life sized game of Snakes and Ladders people will learn about healthy coping strategies. There is the opportunity throughout the day to participate in creating a sand Mandala-  a large circle in which geometric sand patterns are created; the making of Uthanda dolls; and laughter yoga.
