At our North Ryde Hospital we have set up a Christmas backdrop for you to snap a photo of you and/or your pet.

Once you’ve taken a photo, post it on Facebook or Instagram. Caption it with what department you’re visiting and use the hashtag #sashxmas. For every post, SASH will make a donation to Beyond Blue.

(Please note that we can only see posts from public accounts, or where you have chosen to publicly share a photo/post.)

Beyond Blue works with the community to improve mental health and prevent suicide, so that all people in Australia can achieve their best possible mental health.

It is estimated that nearly 70 per cent of vets have lost a colleague or peer to suicide and about 6 in 10 have sought professional help for their mental health.*

If you would like to personally support Beyond Blue and the veterinary industry as a whole, please visit their site directly.
