Outdoors October is an annual public health campaign by Outdoors WA in partnership with the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. Its designed to encourage more people to get active outdoors, create new habits and support the growth of the outdoor industry.
This years theme is 'get outside for mental health' and Local Governments are encouraged to support and enable their communities to get active outdoors, this October. Why not submit an event and share campaign resources?
Studies show that spending two hours a week in nature is fantastic for your mental health and is also linked to significant reductions in the risks of chronic disease.
