ERH puts best foot forward for mental health

It was founded by Geoff Toogood, a Melbourne-based cardiologist with lived experience of depression and anxiety.

Dr Toogood received a 2023 Mental Health Award for lived experience, which recognises national-level mental health leadership by a person who has experienced mental illness personally or as a supporter.

ERH has participated in the day for many years, which is celebrated on the first Friday of June each year.
