Dr Felicity-ann Lewis
Community Leader & 2014 SA Australian of the Year
A dedicated, dynamic leader, Dr Felicity-ann Lewis is passionate about creating a better, healthier, more inclusive Australia
During his recovery, Anthony developed the Mind Health Toolbox – a free self-help toolbox to assist anyone dealing with the early signs of stress, anxiety or depression. It provides users with four steps to help achieve better mind health.
Having seen too many locals lose their life to suicide, Anthony and friend and farmer Gavin Schuster created Save our Mates, Chew the Fat Nights. Supported by a community for men only, the free events are held in regional South Australia throughout the year.
With the tagline “Blokes would rather hear your challenges than your eulogy”, Chew the Fat nights enable men to grab a feed, drink some beer, hear from everyday Aussie guest speakers who share their stories, and most importantly, to talk.
Anthony is also a speaker and workshop facilitator engaged across Australia to share his story and inspire men to take better care of their mental and physical wellbeing.
The Australia Day Council of South Australia acknowledges the Adelaide region as the traditional country of the Kaurna people and respect Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and relationship with the land.
