Mental Health Matters is a from lived experience youth for lived experience youth and the wider community organisation based in Ōtautahi.

We advocate for implementing mental health education into the national curriculum for all levels of education with a particular focus on storytelling as we change what it means to be vulnerable one story at a time.

We believe that everyone has mental health, and recognizing this through different creative outlets, like storytelling, reduces the stigma and starts/continues to normalize the kōrero around mental health which ensures the positive wellbeing of our future leaders and people of Aotearoa as a whole.

Bradley Mutch's involvement (page creator)
