ABOUT

On Sunday, April 10 we walk and run up the Scenic Hill in Huonville to raise funds to tackle suicide and promote positive mental health in the Huon Valley.

Partner with Rotary, the Huon Valley Council, PCYC, Rural Alive and Well, Lifeline Tasmania, StandBy Tas, The Royal Flying Doctors Mental Health Service, community members, schools, business and mental health services. This is by the Huon Valley and for the Huon Valley, and all money raised will stay in the Huon. Register now! Click on the link below and then ask your family and friends to sponsor you as you complete the Hilltop Hike. All money raised is tax deductible and many local businesses are groups are contributing funds and support. Money raised will be used to deliver FREE mental health first aid information sessions, mental health education and training for Huon Valley community members. The remaining funds will be shared across several mental health programs providing services in the Huon Valley.
