Tenpin Bowling Australia (TBA) acknowledges World Mental Health Day (WMHD) on October 10, 2021, as an important time to raise awareness of mental health issues and services to help those going through challenging times.

The 2021 WMHD message from Mental Health Australia is simple – “Look after your mental health, Australia.”

It’s been more than 18 months since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The challenging period has had a major impact on people’s mental health for a variety of reasons. World Mental Health Day is about more than advocacy. It also provides yet another opportunity to empower people to look after their own mental health and provide support to others, an effort that requires consistent effort on all days.
