Brand Tas

"In Tassie we play to our strengths. Innovation looks like using communities to improve mental health, like nature-based therapies, or strong partnerships between institutions. It’s about that feeling of togetherness."

"As English is not my first language, it took me a bit of time to adjust. It was such a challenge for me, but exciting at the same time. Everyone was welcoming. Everyone was understanding where I came from."

"I kept hearing about the unemployment rate, yet I was also hearing about the skills shortage in tourism and hospitality. It felt like these were two problems that could potentially solve each other."

"We were starting to understand a bit more about mental illness and how many people it affected. Movember gave us something real to put that passion towards. That's what we needed."

"It was one of those penny-drop moments, ‘I can see myself within that art.’ It was a wake-up call. It awoke that in me. I thought, “What’s the worst you can do? Fail again?’"
