What's Happening?
Stress Down Day
Friday 23 July, 2010 is Lifeline Australia’s Stress Down Day. This day is
dedicated to reducing the burden of stress on our community, and will
encourage people in schools and workplaces to have fun with their fellows,
friends or family to reduce stress levels, have fun and raise funds for Lifeline.
The money will go towards helping run our 24 hour telephone support services,
a service that is literally life saving for thousands of Australian’s every year.
What do we do on Stress Down Day?
You simply get sponsored to wear your slippers to work or school, dress up or
dress down and have a bit of fun to show that you support Lifeline and its life
saving work
Or alternatively, other ways to show support could be:
1) Purchasing Exclusive Stress Down Day Slippers
2) Developing your own event (where slippers or a change in clothes are
impractical/against OH&S)
The campaign will also provide participants and organisations with useful tools
to manage stress in our everyday lives. For more information visit
