We're fundraising for better mental health
At Clarity Health
Care we've been building social prescribing into how we work. Alongside therapy
and medication, we prescribe the things that hold people up day to day:
movement, daylight, green space, connection.
It isn't a soft add-on, it's evidence. A study of nearly 20,000 people found
120 minutes a week in nature is the point where health and wellbeing benefits
show up, and it counts whether you get it in one go or in ten minute grabs. A
2026 overview of 116 systematic reviews found nature-based interventions
produce large reductions in anxiety and depressive symptoms. The RACGP is now
pushing to embed social prescribing across Australian general practice.
Which makes it a bit rich to keep prescribing something we don't do ourselves.
So for the 30 days of September, our team is getting outside for 30 minutes a
day. That's 210 minutes a week each, no excuses about Melbourne weather.
Every dollar raised goes to Stride's mental health services, supporting people
from early intervention for children and young people through to ongoing care
for adults with complex needs.
If you've ever been told to go for a walk and ignored it, this one is for
you.
