New Commercial: Australian of the Year Speaks on Mental Health

With Mental Health beds closing, its at least heartening to know that a new commercial will start airing on TV as of tomorrow where Patrick McGorry, Australian of the Year, who has worked in Mental Health for over 25 years calls on both parties to address the urgent need for Mental Health services.
Half of all Australians will suffer mental ill health at some point in their lives.
Watch this video message from Australian of the Year, Patrick McGorry, and join the campaign for mental health reform:
