CRAZY colourful hats and Alice in Wonderland costumes were donned last week to celebrate the fourth Albany Mad Hatter Tea Party.
The event celebrated Mental Health Week with the aim of reducing the stigma around mental health and raising awareness about local mental health and wellbeing services available in the Great Southern.
There was something for everyone at the Mad Hatter Tea Party, including Drip Lock Doughnuts and Beck and Call coffee, lawn games, laughter yoga, a photo booth and live music.
Southern Edge Arts students took to the stage in a sea container for a free performance, and local wellbeing services held stalls with pamphlets and information packs, providing advice and techniques for achieving good mental health and wellbeing.
Headspace, Relationships Australia, Albany Gay and Lesbian, Depression Support Network Albany and Palmerston Albany were among the participating organisations.
