🍿💛LOCAL CINEMAS. LOCAL COMMUNITIES. SUPPORTING MENTAL HEALTH.💛🍿

How good is this?!

This Thursday, 22 October, Village Silver City Cinema will be showing their support for mental health across our regions by helping raise funds for local Lifeline centres and The Mark Sarfaty Memorial Fund!

🎬For every ticket sold this Thursday, $1 will be donated to support these important causes.

Village Silver City Cinema is a part of Independent Cinemas Australia (ICA), whose commitment to supporting Australians extends beyond the big screen. Following a connection made by a Lifeline bookfair volunteer in Sydney, ICA and its participating cinemas are helping make a difference for people experiencing mental health challenges.

Through The Mark Sarfaty Memorial Fund, support is also provided to disadvantaged individuals and families within Australia's cinema and performing arts community through direct financial assistance.

💛This is what community connection is all about!

So, if you can, get behind your local cinema this Thursday, 22 October. Enjoy a movie, support a local business and help contribute to a community where people can access support when they need it most.

Because local support matters. And sometimes, the smallest connections can make the biggest difference.

🤝Is your business interested building connections?

Lifeline Connect Broken Hill would love to hear from businesses interested in working with Lifeline Regional South Australia and Far West New South Wales to:

Raise awareness of mental health and su***de prevention.
Help people understand what support is available and where to find it.
Support local Lifeline services through community fundraising and partnerships.

📧Get in touch at [email protected], and we'll connect you with our team.

Together, we can help create stronger, more connected communities where no one has to face their toughest moments alone.💛

🙏 THANK YOU, Broken Hill! 🙏
Around 70 people packed into Silver City Cinema for our charity screening of Don't Be Prey, and every single one stayed for the Q&A with Mark Sowerby and our own Brendan Cullen.

Feedback was fantastic — an inspiring and fascinating night all round. Huge thanks to everyone who donated, with every dollar going to Lifeline Connect Broken Hill.

Thank you again to Mark Sowerby, Kizmet and the Musicians Club for making the night possible in support of Lifeline SA and Far West NSW.

The next morning, our Ambassador Brendan Cullen had breakfast with Mark Sowerby and Today Show Presenter Tim Davies — all showing their support for our How's Ya Mate program.

Broken Hill, you never fail to show up. Thank you!
