"Let’s Have A Chat is a fantastic service assisting with the constantly growing need to provide care for mental health in our community. Janelle and Ian are two amazing people who are using their own experience to show a real understanding and compassion that is needed when caring for the mental well-being of others. I’m very proud to support their efforts and am grateful for their contribution to the Gold Coast Community."
