Mental Health Royal Commission

Health, Mental Health

Michael and Tex are joined in the studio this week by Thorne Harbour Health CEO Simon Ruth, Manager of Thorne Harbour Health’s Counselling services Venetia Brissenden, and CEO of Switchboard Jo Ball.

We are talking about the Mental Health Royal Commission, and which will examine the effect of mental health on peoples ability to prosper in the community and workplaces. We take a look at the Royal Commission from an LGBTI perspective, and the mental health services available for our communities.
