ROTARY has gone on the road to fight depression.
A Rotary Health Safari is travelling around Australia to raise awareness and understanding of mental illness and depression.
Safari participants will roll into Pakenham on Thursday, 10 November.
Rotary Club of Pakenham member Ken Rook said local Rotarians will join the safari at the Safeway car park from 8 am until 12 noon. The safari vehicles are a 9.8 metre Winnebago Explorer and a Peugeot 407 support vehicle.
Interactive computer screens have been installed in the Winnebago using programs designed to help people identify depression and anxiety.
They will showcase the work done to help Australians beat mental illness.
