TalkLife

Talklife, a global social network that enables young people to open up about taboo issues including depression, self-harm and even suicide, has grown to 8,000 users per day across 125 countries in the last two years. Throughout that time the platform had been funded by its founder, Jamie Druitt. But Mr Druitt said Talklife "will be taken to another... level" after receiving support from local investors and London's Bethnal Green Ventures. "This is the most exciting time in Talklife's short history," Mr Druitt said. "We've had great investors get on board, who are Adelaide-based businessmen with a passion for tackling youth mental health and helping Talklife become the social network that saves lives. "The investment will help us continue to build a sustainable business model that will provide a platform for us to help many thousands more young people who are struggling with mental health issues around the world."Read More
