Kicking The Stigma Of Mental Health, One Blue Tree At A Time.
Blue Trees, now standing across every continent of the world, are powerful symbols of hope - silent yet unwavering reminders that you don't have to face your mental health challenges alone.
A simple, "Why is that tree blue?" sparks a conversation that can change everything. Blue Trees have been a catalyst, encouraging countless people to open up, seek support and provide hope in the moments it was needed most.
Join us in fighting to kick the stigma for a mentally healthier future.
About Blue Tree Project
Blue Tree Project is a mental health charity that began in 2019 after the tragic loss of Jayden Whyte, a much-loved son, brother and friend to suicide in 2018. Blue Tree Project began as a grassroots initiative in regional Western Australia which has grown into a widely recognised and impactful global movement.
Blue trees now stand proudly across the globe, with over 1,395+ registered blue trees. These striking symbols of hope have resonated deeply, sparking open and meaningful conversations, positively transforming attitudes towards mental health.

Blue Trees Act As Visual Reminders & Conversation Starters
