Sir John Kirwan and Bryce Casey will be speaking at this year's resilience breakfast, which has been organised by the Waghorn Builders and is supported by more than 70 local businesses.

The free event, which started about five years ago, aims to encourage people, mainly in the construction industry, to open up about their mental health and connect with local mental health providers.

This year, the event will be held on Wednesday 24 September at Kaiapoi High School from 7am - 9.30am. Help yourself to a free BBQ breakfast, grab a coffee and hear from two of New Zealand's most sought after speakers.
