What happened

Accent Group will donate $450,000 over a three-year period to mental health charities across Australian and New Zealand following the soaring mental health crisis that has worsened throughout the pandemic.

Why it matters

The business’ Stamp Your Feet initiative will see Accent partner with Headspace Australia and Youthline New Zealand, and make annual donations of $100,000 and $50,000 respectively.

And, it expects to add more organisations to the list over time.

“We are experiencing unprecedented levels of mental health issues due to pressures of the Covid-19 pandemic,” said Daniel Agostinelli, chief executive at Accent Group.
