La Roche-Posay’s recent #ActsOfKindness Solidarity Project with MC Deborah Hutton highlighted mental health for healthcare workers during this challenging time of COVID-19.

The free, interactive, live-streamed webinar dedicated to our tireless healthcare workers was a huge success, and the brand will be distributing 7,000+ Care Packs of La Roche-Posay products, and 20,000+ units of its Purifying Hand Gel Sanitiser, to healthcare workers across the nation.

This solidarity project was held as an expression of gratitude to all of our valued frontline healthcare workers, for their courage and dedication to ensuring ongoing health and safety amongst the wider community.

The informative and engaging discussion hosted by media personality Deborah Hutton attracted a diverse range of healthcare professionals, including frontline emergency workers, nurses, dermatologists, pharmacists and aged care personnel. Dr Tim Sharp (aka Dr Happy), founder of The Happiness Institute, talked about building resilience to maintain happiness throughout difficult times, and Beyond Blue Volunteer Speaker and Cardiologist Dr Geoff Toogood spoke on mental wellbeing and the support services available during the pandemic and beyond.

LA ROCHE-POSAY has a long history of working closely with the medical and pharmacy professions, and acknowledges the incredible support provided to Australians.

“It’s a new world, and the demand for healthcare workers has increased considerably. These dedicated frontline professionals are working tirelessly, and often in high-risk scenarios, to keep all Australians safe during this challenging period. LA ROCHE-POSAY has always partnered with dermatologists and healthcare professionals, to improve the ‘quality of life’ of their patients. As their journey continues, we must acknowledge their valued contribution, and continue to support them in every way possible, to improve their ‘quality of life’ and ensure their absolute wellbeing,” says Yann Kerherve General Manager, L’Oréal Australia Active Cosmetics Division
