HELP FOR TRADIES WITH MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS

TRADESPEOPLE in Western Sydney are facing a devastating epidemic of suicide, with rates among young tradesmen more than double that of other men. 
 
CEO of TIACS (This Is A Conversation Starter), Keri Stephenson, said that those who work in trades and construction have some of the highest suicide rates in Australia amongst men. 
 
TIACS is a free and confidential chat, text, and call-back service that provides early-intervention mental health support for Australia’s truckies, tradies, blue-collar workers, and those who care about them. 
 
Through the support of partnerships with businesses such as TradeMutt, TIACS has supported over 12,000 clients and delivered over $2.15M worth of market services to the Australian blue-collar community free of charge.
 
TradeMutt, founded by Daniel Allen and Edward Ross, is a national social impact workwear brand that supports the health and well-being of tradies and other blue-collar workers across the country. 
 
The company was founded after Daniel lost a close friend to suicide in 2015. TradeMutt creates eye-catching, colorful shirt designs that start conversations about mental health. 
 
The company also created the concept of "Funky Shirt Friday" to give tradies a reason to wear their TradeMutt shirts to work, similar to what office workers do on casual Fridays. 50% of TradeMutt’s profits are donated directly to TIACS.
