In 2017, after nearly 10 years working away, Lachie lost two colleagues to suicide. He was later evacuated from site for mental health issues.
Since then he has gone on to become one of the leaders in FIFO mental health, creating a top10 mental health podcast, the FIFO Mental Health Summit, FIFO Happiness, The Association for Mental Health in Mining & The Red Earth Project.
In 2021 he also won the 'national mens health champion' award, for his work in FIFO mental health, from the Australian Mens Health Forum.
Lachie's mission, beyond being a good man, father and partner, is to help FIFO leaders create certainty and safety on site, by being the circuit breaker who gets their teams talking about their mental health.
Your team will go from 'hard to crack', to opening up about how they feel.
