About this Event

Understand Trauma, Understand Mental Health

Join us for the 2024 Woodcock Public Lecture, hosted by Wellways Australia.

How well do you understand trauma in the context of mental health?

The theme of this year’s lecture will unpack ‘trauma’ from a consumer, carer/family perspective and explore trauma-informed approaches to gain insights into how mental health system reform can enhance a culture of trauma-informed care.

Our keynote speakers both bring a combination of lived and living experience with governance level expertise and insights from within the mental health sector.

We are thrilled to announce our 2024 Woodcock Lecture speakers as:

  • Maggie Toko - Mental Health and Wellbeing Commissioner and lived/living experience consumer.
  • Kerry Hawkins - National Mental Health Commissioner and Vice Chair of Mental Health Carers Australia.

All ticket holders attending the event in-person are asked to bring their ticket QR code to show at the door. This can be saved on your phone, a screenshot, or printed out.

This event will also be streamed online - if you cannot attend in person please register as an online atendee so we can send you the video link and a reminder closer to the day.
