Your support brings hope to the entertainment industry by addressing urgent mental health needs.
The gig economy's challenges and rising living costs impact financial stability and mental wellbeing. As the festive season approaches, your contributions are vital in fostering good mental health. Thanks to you, our wellbeing programs are reducing alarming suicide rates and anxiety levels. Each year, many of our loved ones across our entertainment industry attempt suicide due to feeling alone, isolated and not knowing how to manage mental health challenges or where they can find help.
Your donations provide free education programs to our industry workers that change this.
Please donate today to help create a healthier, more resilient, thriving entertainment community.
Your generosity can save lives and bring lasting change.
Be a joy maker for those who bring joy to so many all year round.

The arts and entertainment sector brings immense joy to Australians but behind the curtain, many performers, technicians, and support workers face higher-than-average rates of depression, anxiety, and mental distress, with suicide tragically affecting the industry at alarming levels.

Entertainment Assist is committed to improving mental health in the Australian entertainment industry.
We do this by:
Commissioning research to shine a light on the challenges.
Driving change through programs and workplace transformation.
Identifying clear pathways of support for those in need.
Together, we can create a healthier, more supportive industry for everyone.
