WE'RE HIKING FOR MENTAL HEALTH
In 2025, Coastrekkers will be hiking for mental health and fundraising for Beyond Blue.
Through our 12-week Training Program and national series of team hiking events, Coastrek can play a vital role in helping people manage anxiety and depression and improve their mental, physical and social wellbeing, while raising funds for the Beyond Blue 24/7 Support Service.
Every step you take with Coastrek can make a real impact on your own mental health and help ensure support is there when needed for those you love and for all Australians.
