Activate Mental Health is dynamic and forward thinking organisation that has existed for over six years. We run fun social events to improve our members mental health and well-being. Some examples of events that are hosted regularly are:

• Walks
• Board games nights
• Silent Book Club
• Mini Golf
• 8 Ball Pool
• Ten pin bowling
• Pub quiz nights
• Knitting and crochet
• BBQ’s and picnics
• Origami
• Lawn bowls
• Mindfulness sessions
• And more….

These activities are run by dedicated event hosts who schedule these events at times and places that are convenient to them. All the events for the group are advertised on a social media platform, where our member base can view the events and RSVP to them.

Our events are generally held in central areas around Perth, which includes Victoria Park, Northbridge, Leederville and Subiaco, but there is no geographical boundary for where events are help within the Perth Metropolitan Area.

==== Time commitment ====

We recommend to our events hosts that they host one event per month to stay engaged as an event host, but this is only a suggestion. An event usually takes between 1-3 hours to host depending on the activity type, plus up to 15 minutes to draft and publish the event on Meetup.
