In today’s fast-paced world, many young people face immense pressure and stress, leading to mental health challenges. According to the World Health Organization, depression is one of the leading causes of illness and disability among adolescents. These struggles can often go unnoticed or untreated, leaving young individuals feeling isolated and overwhelmed. Addressing youth mental health is crucial to ensure that every young person has the support they need to thrive and succeed.

In tandem with the growing awareness of youth mental health, organizations like Blue Tree Project are stepping up to offer support. Through its symbolic blue tree sculptures and community-driven initiatives, Blue Tree Project aims to spark conversations about mental health and promote connection and understanding. By encouraging individuals to paint blue trees and share their stories, the charity creates a platform for expression and solidarity, fostering a sense of belonging and hope.

Participate in the Bunker Bay 300 Charity Bike Ride, where Blue Tree Project will benefit, supporting youth mental health initiatives. Experience an exciting evening of cycling races and networking as the community gathers to raise awareness and funds for mental health support in Perth and the South West. Here are the details:
