Mental Health Week 2026 is here!

WA Mental Health Week takes place from Monday 4 to Sunday 11 October with the theme ‘Taking control in the face of change’. This years theme explores how our perceptions of control can support a sense of optimism, influence our wellbeing and help us support others.  

During the week, Western Australians are encouraged to reflect on their perceptions of control and optimism in the face of change. By focusing on the tools, habits and supports we can control, we can improve our wellbeing and create a more mentally healthy community.
