About Queensland Mental Health Week Events
Queensland Mental Health Week 2023 (7-15 October) aims to raise awareness of the mental health and wellbeing of individuals and communities here at UQ and in Queensland broadly.
Explore the week full of activities packed with self-care activities, blender bikes, stallholders and resources for your mental health and wellbeing, photobooths, and more. In the lead-up to exams, it is more important than ever for us all to take care, check-in with each other, and seek help when needed!

QMHW at UQ is organised by UQ Wellbeing, a health promotion program proudly funded by Allianz Care Australia.
