@RachSANECEO @Jynx

I am glad to hear that it went well. I purposely got out of bed for it but didn’t have any interactions with the change makers so I was a little disappointed. The main thing is that they were interested and want to keep funding this as well as other mental health initiatives.

Thank you for the information

@Shaz51 Classic choc, choc caramel, or choc mint, what's your poison?

Ach I'm sorry @Oaktree I can imagine the frustration and disappointment. I hope there may be another opportunity for you, who knows 😊

@Jynx

I just told hubby that we need to build a swing in the backyard for my inner child

Aww choc caramel tonight 😍 @Jynx

Hopefully this helps @Oaktree (and hoping this link works) https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sane-australia_worldmentalhealthday-complexmentalhealth-activity-7249987012986871808-75Qy

In one of the photos here you will see SANE Patron in Chief, Dame Quentin Bryce looking at the forums and reading many posts and threads. We were so honoured to have her there as a guest and she loved reading the threads.

Aww heck yes @Oaktree did he say yes? I wish I had room for one of those swinging lounges!

Yummm @Shaz51 caramel is my fav usually, but I've been on a choc mint kick of late...

Well guess it's a good thing I'm about to hop off for the evening, cos I am obviously gonna go get me some choc mint hot choccies!!

Nighty night you two wonderful humans, catch you next time 💜

Thank you @RachSANECEO

That link does work and I had a look. Looks like you had a decent Sane team there. Did you get any feedback from the bigwigs about continuing to fund Sane

Wow thanks @RachSANECEO , that is great 👍

Looks like a good day

@Oaktree , @Jynx

Short quick answer is really really great, many leaders and MPs took the time to look at the demo and the forums and loved them, they took brochures away to share with their electorates, they read your posts and a few wrote replies- we will do a proper report when everyone recovers but it was a roaring success

@RachSANECEO Well that sounds very promising then. Hopefully it's made a difference. My two typing fingers are still a bit stiff. I think it was about 3 hours typing like a mad man!
