Men's Health
Jul 08, 2021
Paul has always been interested in Men’s Mental wellbeing and the prevention of male suicide, especially after losing a family member and 2 close friends in a two year period. He started to ask some serious questions. Does a “one size fits all” approach really help solve male mental health issues across age groups? Why is there a record amount of rehab services available for men to access, yet male mental health continues to decline and suicide rates continue to climb? Is there an opportunity to focus on more prehab initiatives and awareness building, in order to bring better balance to the male mental health ecosystem? And so the Men’s Talk Charity was born in Scarborough. Men’s Talk is about mainstreaming conversation around Mental Health and Wellness in men of all ages, redefining masculinity and teaching all men to practice effective communication for wellbeing. We aim to achieve this through a wide array of activities including, but not limited to, open forum platforms, media and community support and activities that all the community can participate in. At some point, we have to stop pulling people out of the river and go upstream and find out why they are falling in. - Bishop Desmond Tutu |

Perth Then and Now
Jul 15, 2021
Richard's book, "Perth Then and Now", accurately matches historic photographs of the city with specially commissioned contemporary views that show how each site looks today. With an Aboriginal history going back over 40,000 years, Perth ranks amongst the oldest places on earth with near continuous human habitation. The modern city came into being in 1829 with the formation of the Swan River Colony. For the first 60 years of its existence, Perth was no more than a small country town which lived on an economic knife-edge between riches and ruin. Then, in the 1890s, commercial quantities of gold were discovered in the North and East of Western Australia. This sparked the first of several mineral booms in the State and resulted in Perth being able to demonstrate its newfound wealth in the form grandiose buildings which transformed the modest town into the fine city we know today. In this talk, taken from the Richard’s best-selling book, photos past and present are laid side by side in a fascinating visual tour around the capital of Western Australia. .
