Have your say in Support Act’s first ever industry mental health and wellbeing survey

Today Support Act – the only charity to support musicians and crew – are launching their first ever Mental Health and Wellbeing in Music and Live Performing Arts survey, in conjunction with the Centre for Social Impact Swinburne, and we want to hear from you! 

They need your help to get an updated picture of the mental health and wellbeing of everyone working in music and live performing arts in Australia, the factors that are impacting your work and lives (such as COVID-19), and the kinds of supports or services that are making a difference or that you may need.

The online survey is open to anyone who works in music or the live performing arts, including musicians, songwriters, live production crew as well as managers, producers and live performing artists. All submissions will be anonymous and completely voluntary.

The survey is open now until Thursday 7 April and the findings will be announced at our Head First music industry conference discussing mental health and wellbeing on Wednesday 25 May in Sydney. A summary of the results will also be made publicly available on the Support Act website.
