Yesterday I attended a creative industries seminar organised by Screenwest \u2013 The show must go on, about wellness and mental health.<\/p>\n
The seminar hosted a Q&A panel after a screening of the documentary \u2018The Show Must Go On\u2019 by Ben Steel, a filmmaker and former Home & Away actor. The seminar was a cathartic and timely session into the impacts of COVID on the creative industry in WA, which comes on top of the pre-existing mental health challenges many already face.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s some of the resources you might like to share with your teams.<\/p>\n
