Craig Hamilton

Craig is one of Australia’s leading and high-profile mental health advocates. He is has just finished working on a Documentary titled The Promise with Newcastle based filmmaker Jye Currie. As someone at the forefront of Mental Health and specifically the area of early intervention, Craig’s story is one I know well. Craig has been one of Australia’s most respected speakers in the mental health area for over twenty years. I’ve worked with Craig on several occasions and highly recommend him as a Keynote speaker on mental health and well-being. His story is inspirational. Orygen

Craig was a real gift to us yesterday. What a great and powerful speaker. He was wonderful, fantastic, educative, funny, I can't say enough. I have had a huge response from people, lots of emails expressing their gratitude at hearing his story. He spoke from his heart and the audience was riveted. St Vincent’s Hospital

Because Craig deals with his illness openly and publicly, we asked him to become an Ambassador for Beyondblue some 15 years ago. Craig travels the country speaking at public meetings and to the media, helping to raise awareness of depression. By speaking out, Craig is helping others, particularly in encouraging them to seek help. Beyondblue

When Craig starts telling his story, you don't want him to stop. It is honest, insightful and spoken with great passion and conviction. Craig spoke to a room full of journalism and public relation academics, local media and staff working in mental health. His presentation had something in it for everyone … Our national guests were talking about his insights long after that evening and reflecting on both their personal and professional roles. It was a great reminder about how powerful the personal story can be in motivating people. Hunter Institute of Mental Health
