For a town built on hard work and generational experience in coal, the transition changes ahead aren’t always going to be just economic – for some, they’re a little more personal. In this episode, we’re diving into the emotional toll that can bring added pressure, stress, and a lot of unknowns for the community and workforce. Hear from Liam Cubbage, CEO of Mates in Mining WA, on why mental health is becoming a vital part of the conversation in town, and how their upcoming work in Collie will make a difference on the ground.
