Throughout WA Mental Health Week (10 – 16 October 2022), some of WA’s leading hospitality venues are uniting to drive donations towards Healthy Mind Menu Inc, helping support the mental health of hospitality workers.
To coincide with 2022 Mental Health Week, the community are encouraged to visit the following hospitality venues that are donating a portion of proceeds to Healthy Mind Menu:
• All ALH Group venues across Western Australia
• Alfred’s Pizzeria, Perth CBD
• Bar Lafayette, Perth CBD
• Frisk Small Bar, Northbridge
• Golden Boy & Jade Girl, Perth CBD
• La Cabana, South Fremantle
• NABER+IIII, Leederville
• Pappagallos Italian Restaurant, Leederville
• The Seasonal Brewing Co, Maylands
• Sonder Coffee, Victoria Park
• W Churchill, Perth CBD
This year, all proceeds will fund the research and development of Australia’s first Blueprint for Mental Health in Hospitality, a best-practice guide to address mental health and wellbeing issues in the workforce.
International research shows hospitality workers suffer from high rates of mental health problems. In 2017, 563 workers in the hospitality industry took their own lives in Australia. Worryingly, Lifeline reports that 44% of hospitality workers would not talk to anyone if they had a problem.
Health Mind Menu brings together top chefs, leading hospitality figures and mental health advocates to support the mental wellbeing of WA’s hospitality industry staff.
Since its creation, Healthy Mind Menu has held workshops, online support session and committee meetings to ensure mental health remains a front of mind issue for those in the hospitality industry, particularly for managers and owners who have a duty of care to their valued staff.
Healthy Mind Menu Chairperson, Wayne Teo said the progress being made was critically important to ensuring the long-term mental wellbeing of WA’s hospitality staff.
“The conversation that is being had as a result of the Healthy Mind Menu being formed is well overdue,” Mr Teo said.
