Last week, we had a full-circle moment.
We returned to the airwaves of 6PR Perth with some very special members of our Lifeline WA community to reflect on 40 years of listening, and to raise funds for the conversations still to come.
Back in 1986, Graham Mabury OAM’s Nightline program helped bring together a community of people who cared deeply about supporting others through life’s toughest moments. Through those conversations, and the generosity of the community, Lifeline WA’s journey began.
Throughout the day, we heard from some incredible people who make Lifeline WA what it is today.
Sarah Fordham, CEO, and Adrian Momber, Crisis Supporter, opened the day by sharing why community support matters so deeply.
Graham Mabury OAM returned to the 6PR studio to reflect on the early days of Lifeline WA and reconnect with callers who had shared in that journey.
Vince Garreffa once again reminded us of the power of generosity and community, kindly donating two private dinners to help raise vital funds.
Karen and Jace, two of our Digital Team Leads, shared why every story matters, and why every person who reaches out deserves to be heard.
Thank you to everyone who tuned in, shared our message & donated to Lifeline WA, and a special thanks to 6PR Perth for welcoming us into the studios. Together we raised more than $70,000 for Lifeline WA’s Crisis Support Services.
Most of all, thank you to our community. Your support helps make thousands of life-changing conversations possible.
Donations are open until the end of October if you’d like to support Lifeline WA: https://fundraise.lifelinewa.org.au/6pr-radio-giving
