Health workers from the Rundu Intermediate Hospital, accompanied by students from the health sector, marched through Rundu's CBD in commemoration of World Mental Health Day. 

Celebrated on 10 October each year, World Mental Health Day aims to raise awareness of mental health issues and encourage efforts to support those experiencing mental health issues. 

This year's theme focusses on mental health at work, and UNAM's nursing students will be performing a drama about an unsupportive work environment.

A mindfulness practice and a self-mental health assessment are just some of the activities that locals will be exposed to in remembrance of the day currently underway at the Intermediate Hospital Rundu.
