Organiser's Description

๐Ÿ”ฅ THIS IS A RALLY CRY. NOT A WHISPER. ๐Ÿ”ฅMENTAL HEALTH IS A FIGHT WE CANโ€™T AFFORD TO LOSE.Depression. Anxiety. Panic attacks. Mental illness.
They donโ€™t discriminate. They donโ€™t wait.
They hit hardโ€”and they hit everyone.
If itโ€™s not your fight, itโ€™s someone you love.Too many suffer in silence. Too many donโ€™t make it.We need to do something!๐ŸŽค Craig Jamieson, Canadian musician and survivor, has lived the struggle.
Heโ€™s lost people. Heโ€™s felt the darkness.
Now, heโ€™s raising his voiceโ€”and advocating for change.โ€œI felt alone. No one understood. The pain was unbearableโ€”and the help I needed just wasnโ€™t there. At times, it nearly broke me.โ€But he didnโ€™t stay down. He roseโ€”and now heโ€™s rallying us all to rise with him.HEREโ€™S THE TRUTH:๐Ÿ’ก Mental illness is realโ€”and itโ€™s treatable.
๐Ÿค We need community. Isolation kills.
๐Ÿงญ We need clear paths to healing.Thatโ€™s where mindyourmind steps in.
They work with youth to build real tools, real connection, and real hope.
But their reach is limitedโ€”and we can change that.SO HEREโ€™S OUR MOVE:Not a walkathon.
Not a marathon.
A DANCEATHON. ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿ’ƒMusic moves people.
It heals. It connects. It awakens.Big Records Artists, Craig Jamieson and Laura Gagnon are hitting the stage at Temperance to blast depression into the dustโ€”one beat at a time.
And you? Youโ€™re invited to move with us.โœŠ JOIN THE FIGHT:๐Ÿ’ƒ Dance for a better tomorrow - Every minute you spend on the dance floor saves lives!
