The Bunbury workshop has thrown itself behind Mullets for Mental Health, turning a bold hairstyle into a powerful way to raise awareness and start conversations that matter. What began as a simple idea quickly picked up pace, with the team embracing the challenge and each other along the way. For HSE Advisor Stephen Neale, the cause is deeply personal, and one he was keen to get involved with. “After losing an extended family member to suicide last year, I wanted to find a way to raise awareness at a local level,” Stephen said. “The response from the team has been really positive. It is a practical way to keep the conversation going and encourage open and honest discussions around mental health.” After building momentum through earlier mental health sessions on site, Stephen brought the idea to a pre-start, where it quickly gained traction, helped along by a few AI-generated previews of what the team might look like with mullets. Supervisor Brad White said it did not take much convincing to get everyone involved. “I am a big advocate for promoting mental health, and there is still so much work to be done,” he said. “Stephen brought it up in a pre-start, and I was on board instantly. The boys were the same. Everyone wants to get behind something that makes a difference.” With fundraising running through to early May, the team added their own spin to the campaign, planning a final day event, complete with fresh mullet cuts and a barbecue to bring everyone together. “The support has been amazing so far,” Brad said. “Everyone has gotten around it, and I think that will keep going.” While the hairstyles have certainly turned heads, the real impact has been the conversations happening across the workshop. The initiative has helped create space for open discussions, strengthened team connections, and reinforced the importance of looking out for one another. “It is not just about individuals, it is about teams, families and the broader community,” Stephen said. “With the support from Brad and the workshop team, I would definitely look at doing it again next year.” You can find out more information or chip in with a donation [here](https://www.mulletsformentalhealth.org.au/fundraisers/monadelphoussouthwestoperations). ![ThePipeline\_Blog\_26April5](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/ThePipeline_Blog_26April5.jpg?width=600&height=338&name=ThePipeline_Blog_26April5.jpg)   ## Leave a comment Previous Post Monos recognised in Safe Choices Award Next Post Bop to the top with Zach ## Recommended For You [![](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hubfs/Join%20us%20for%20the%20Push-Up%20Challenge.png)](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/join-us-for-the-push-up-challenge) [Sustainability](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/tag/sustainability) [HSE](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/tag/hse) 1 Min Read ### [Join us for the Push-Up Challenge](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/join-us-for-the-push-up-challenge) Register now as we push up for better mental health 1 – 24 June [![](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hubfs/Copy%20of%20HubSpot%20Blog%20Image%20(17).jpg)](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/breaking-the-silence) [People](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/tag/people) 2 Min Read ### [Breaking the silence](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/the-pipeline/breaking-the-silence) Some stories stay with you long after the applause ends.
