October: Happy Everything Awareness Month

Mental Health Awareness Month in Australia has been assigned by some genius at WayAhead to, you guessed it, October.
Only a matter of time before it's moved under the Dept. health organisers official list. :tired_face: Why. September has World Suicide Prevention day and RUOkay day so people would still be thinking about it year-round. May was a really good time for it.

As well as October being the official National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, want to know what else it already is?
:joy: Someone tell organizers that there are other months in the year? I can only sit at so many campaign benches.

  • I just saw a Facebook post saying October is also miscarriage and still birth awareness month. Something I also hold close to my heart. A busy month indeed. Sorry for the bold but don't know how to get rid of it. Ignore that, worked it out

  • The 18th for me :)  Its my first birthday living on my own so I might make it a spoil myself/pamper day :)
  • Inkpetal maybe it's so you have a mega busy month and then have the next 11 to recover ;)
    Christine and Mira what are your birth day dates so we can wish you both many happy returns??
  • Its Happy birthday month for me too!  All the great things happen in October (except Christmas and the easter bunny) :)
