Today, five Australian Men will suicide. Whilst this speaks of deeper societal challenges, mental health and social change advocate Lee Crockford discusses the seemingly small ways that we can all make a difference, and perhaps save a life.

Lee Crockford is passionate about mental health, social change, the arts, education and innovation. He is both the CEO of Spur Projects – a NFP working in the area of men’s mental health and suicide prevention – and Assemblus – a NFP working to amplify sustainable social impact within organisations.

Lee is an alumnus of IYF’s Global Laureate Fellowship, FYA’s Young Social Pioneer and The Do School’s Global Changemaker programs. He is the recipient of the Australasian Men’s Health Forum’s Youth Contribution Award and was recently named as one of The Cusp’s young people on the cusp of greatness.

Lee is also the founder and co-founder of a number of side projects including Future Postbox, Best Day / Worst Day, The Plot and Get the Antidote.
