Through our partnership with Netball Australia, we empower Aussies of all ages to lead more active, healthier lives. HCF and Netball Australia are both trusted by Aussies, and go above and beyond to put people first.

In our bonus episode, in partnership with Netball Australia, host Cath Cox chats to 3 parents from Australia’s netball community about navigating the tough times of 2020^** – what challenges have they faced this year and how can we look after our children’s mental health, as well as our own?

For more parenting podcast episodes, check out Season 1, Season 2 and Season 3 of Navigating Parenthood.

We’ve teamed up with Netball Australia and Calm Kid Central^** to design practical tools and tips to help parents talk to kids about their feelings during tough times.

At HCF, we understand the importance of mental health, especially in times like these. And just like netball’s elite athletes, children need support to navigate change and uncertainty. We spoke to child mental health experts about how children react to change, keeping kids socially connected and ways to talk to kids about big feelings.

Social distancing, stress around work and school, and general uncertainty about the future can all lead to feelings of sadness or anxiety.

If you're struggling with depression or anxiety, and need to speak to someone now, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or call the Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800.
