GOOD TALK

Directions Website Contact the organization

GOOD TALK is a nonprofit organisation established to raise awareness and funds for Bi-Polar research. Bi-Polar Disorder affects one in seventy Australians.

GOOD TALK is named in memory of our son/brother/mate Graeme "Reidy" Reid who lost his life to Suicide after years of struggling with Bi-Polar Disorder. We chose GOOD TALK for the name of the foundation as this phrase was one of Graeme's favourites which he injected into most conversations. This condition causes extreme mood swings varying from chaotic exuberance of mania to severe depression. Our aim is to raise funds for Bi-Polar research. All monies raised will be donated to the Bipolar Disorders Unit at the School of Psychiatry of University of New South Wales research program "Bi-Polar Kids and Sibs" run by Professor Philip Mitchell, Director Bi-Polar Disorders Clinic.

$6,523 RAISED FOR GOOD TALK!
What an incredible achievement from our Year 12 Class of 2026! 🎉
Throughout their final year at Murray High School, our Year 12 students have worked tirelessly to raise funds for Good Talk, an organisation dedicated to raising awareness of Bipolar Disorder, breaking down the stigma surrounding mental illness and supporting mental health research.
Through countless BBQs, raffles, hot chocolates, bake sales, our Fete Day and many other fundraising activities, our students have raised an outstanding $6,523! 👏
We couldn't be prouder of the generosity, determination and community spirit this cohort has demonstrated. What a wonderful legacy to leave behind as they finish their schooling!
A huge THANK YOU to our students, staff, families, local businesses and wider school community who supported our fundraising efforts throughout the year. Every donation, purchase and helping hand contributed to this incredible result.
Congratulations, Year 12! You've shown that when a community comes together, we can make a real difference.

A huge thank you to Marlee for MC’ing the night — you’re beautiful inside and out, and we truly couldn’t have done it without you. To our Auctioneer for creating an amazing atmosphere. To our incredible speakers Jarrod and Latrell, your honesty and courage set the tone for the evening — thank you for sharing your stories and making the trip to be with us.
