Nutritious Minds is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness of the importance of nutrition in brain-health and development. Our aim is to create meaningful and positive change in the lives of children and young people with any type of learning and/or behaviour difference (e.g., ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia or other “invisible” brain-health condition). We strive to empower young people to reach their highest possible potential by providing nutritional, educational, behavioural support and services as well as community projects in music and the arts. Nutritious Minds aims to transform how these learning and behavioural differences are viewed in the education system and the workplace.

Proceeds from the event will go toward funding a Community Music Project which will enable young people with a talent for any aspect of music (e.g., vocals to sound engineering, DJ’ing, producing and songwriting etc.) to receive 90 minutes mentoring and coaching from an established artist. The project will be filmed for a documentary on mental-health to raise awareness of the transformative role music can play when purpose, passion and opportunity come together.
