Lifeline Australia’s Stress Down Day

Stress Down Day is dedicated to reducing the burden of stress on the community, and will encourage people in schools and workplaces to have fun with their fellows, friends or family to reduce stress levels, have fun and raise funds for Lifeline.

The money will go towards helping run Lifeline's 24 hour telephone support services, a service that is literally life saving for thousands of Australian’s every year.

This event is Lifeline’s key National Fundraising Campaign. The money raised will go primarily to cover the telephone and IT costs for Lifeline’s 24 hour telephone counselling service. Any additional funds raised will support Lifeline’s range of other programs to help build our capacity to connect people with care.

'Lifeline has engaged a number of high-profile ambassadors to endorse the campaign, and many of these will be available for interviews over the months leading up to the main event. Advocates include; Steve Bastoni, Rove, John Brogden, Professor Ian Hickey, Kate DeAraugo, Joe Roff, John Howard (actor), Tim Campbell and Chris Bowen MP amongst others.
