share the warmth campaign

Each year, Peninsula Hot Springs warmly invites guests to pause, breathe, and connect with someone in need for our Share the Warmth campaign. In partnership with Mental Health Australia, Mentis Assist and Musculoskeletal Health Australia (MHA), we encourage guests to bring along someone facing a health challenge, and we will cover the cost of their visit.

ride & walk for relief

Since the first event in 2018, Peninsula Hot Springs and Mentis Assist have partnered to promote mental health awareness. Ride & Walk for Relief is a special event combining the physical challenge of walking or cycling with the soothing benefits of geothermal bathing. Each year, these events encourage authentic connections and community, offering a space where people share their mental health experiences and feel the benefits of physical activity in nature.
