Why Paint A Blue Tree?
Blue Tree Project uses painted blue trees to raise awareness for mental health. Each blue tree acts as a visual reminder and symbol of support, sparking conversations and breaking the stigma around mental health.
By painting a tree, you're helping create a more open, supportive community where mental health is recognised and discussed. Join the movement toward fighting for a mentally healthier future.
A simple "Why is that tree blue?" can lead to endless conversations that make a real difference.
