The previous two years have been undeniably challenging. As a result of prolonged lockdowns and isolation due to COVID, mental health around the world, and including our own Scots community, has been at an all time low. We have been privileged to experience a year so far that has been free of restrictions, and that has brought back normality to our lives. However, the health and wellbeing of the boys’ this year is still more important than ever.
This year, the prefects have decided to support The Top Blokes Foundation. Top Blokes is an organisation that aims to improve mental health and wellbeing in young males from 10 to 24. Top Blokes have 4 goals. 1; to raise awareness about male issues and strategies that can be applied to improve the development of young male health, 2; to inspire young males to reach their full potential, 3; to ensure Australian young men have access to personal development and volunteer opportunities, and 4; to increase the positive representations of young men within the community and media.
There are some exciting things happening in the coming weeks, so spread the word, chat to your mates, and make sure to keep an eye and ear out! There will be some big reveals coming soon! On top of all this, make sure to do the little things. Check in with your mates, ask if they’re ok, see how they’re going. These little things can leave a long lasting impact on someone’s life. Let’s fight this battle!
Scots to the Fore!
