This Mental Health Month, care for yourself with self-care bingo and books!
About this Event

About This Event:

Taking small actions to support and tend to our self-care adds up! During Mental Health Month in October, care for yourself by selecting one of our carefully curated self-care books to borrow and receive a self-care bingo card and lists of recommend books and programs available through your library that will support your mental health.


Mental Health issues affect all people at different times throughout their life. Reading inspiring stories, participating in social activities, and creative and mindfulness-based activities can offer improvement to our general wellbeing while also offering a practical outlet for stress. This month, set the intention to tend to your wellbeing by visiting your library to borrow a self-care book and working your way through our take-home self-care bingo card.


Some of the things you will find in your library’s books on prescription display:


  • Recommended books and e-books to lift your mood or help you understand or improve your mental health.
  • A self-care bingo card with 25 prompts to choose at random to help you practice mindful activities to support your wellbeing.
  • Information on social activities you can join at your libraries or museum.
  • Information on community services that support better mental health.


Visit any Georges River Libraries branch during opening hours to collect a self-care bingo card and browse a display of recommended reads. Self-care bingo cards available while supplies last.
