Mental Health Awareness Month 2021 with Lotus People

It’s the last 2 weeks of Mental Health Awareness Month this 2021, and it’s so important to realize and acknowledge that this movement should not end along with the month of October.


1 in 5 people in Australia experience symptoms of mental illness every year, and we have no doubt that this figure has increased throughout lockdown. With the world changing at a rapid pace, it’s crucial now more than ever to slow down, take a break, and put your wellbeing and peace of mind first.



That said, Lotus People is proud to share that our team has been actively doing our part to mark this month and continue driving awareness to this cause for our fellow Australians experiencing personal mental health challenges. 

One Foot Forward: The Walk for Mental Health

We’ve worked closely with the incredible mental health charity, Black Dog Institute to join them on this wonderful initiative where the entire team participated in a steps challenge with a view to walk 1000kms and raise over $1000 for mental health.

As of October 28th, Lotus People has walked 1,134km and raised $1,010 out of our $1000 goal, and cannot thank enough those who have supported us through donations! Trust that you are helping such an important cause and that you’ve made a difference in the lives of people touched by mental illness since proceeds will go to funding life-changing research about treatment and prevention, as well as providing vital support services.

As the Lotus People team are really big on putting mental health first, we have put together a quick video sharing some personal ways on how to keep an eye out for your personal health in your everyday lives, in hopes that this will serve helpful to those we are able to reach through this blog.


LOTUS PEOPLE VIDEO:

We truly hope that you continue to take care of yourselves as we revert back to our normal ways of living, find a way to unwind, and put mental health first before anything else.



Wishing you the best of health from Lotus.

Enhancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Membership Body Organisations: Key Strategies for Success

October 21, 2024
A diverse and inclusive workplace isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential for fostering a positive and productive environment, especially in the membership bodies and associations sector, where strong values are a key driver of operations. While large corporations may have greater resources to implement extensive diversity strategies, membership organisations, often smaller in size and resource-limited, can still make a significant impact through focused, intentional steps. Prioritising diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) within your organisation can lead to increased engagement, more innovative problem-solving, and a stronger sense of community within your team and association. By embracing these principles, your organisation can create a more welcoming environment for all employees and members. But how can associations create meaningful change with limited resources?
