MENTAL HEALTH FOUNDATION- PINK SHIRT DAY

Moore Markhams is joining the movement on Pink Shirt Day (Friday 19 May 2023), and encouraging our staff, family and friends to Kōrero Mai, Kōrero Atu, Mauri Tū, Mauri Ora – Speak up, Stand Together, Stop Bullying!

Bullying in Aotearoa is a real problem. We have the third-highest rate of school bullying out of 36 OECD countries and one in five workers feels discriminated against or bullied at work. Those bullied are far more likely to experience mental health issues.

Pink Shirt Day works to reduce bullying by celebrating diversity in all its forms and supporting schools, workplaces and communities to be safe, supportive, welcoming and inclusive for everyone.

HOW MOORE MARKHAMS IS HELPING

To celebrate this important kaupapa we’ll be taking part in a walk to spread awareness in public and on social media about the importance of standing together as one.
