What a night at the Shed!
If you want to know why we keep banging about mental health, read the screen on the last photo.
It was good to see a full house of Shedders roll up to last week’s ‘You OK Mate?’ event. The BBQ was firing, the banter was flowing, and there were plenty of blokes getting together for a chat before settling in for some important conversations about men’s health.
Our local NBC Mayor, Sue Heins and Rowie Dillon kicked things off, followed by Federal Special Envoy for Men’s Health, Dan Repacholi MP, who delivered a straight-up message—with plenty of humour—about why blokes need to put their health first. Then came our guest presenters, Matt Sernig and Paul Dunn from ‘Spoke to a Bloke’, who shared some heartfelt stories and valuable insights into men’s mental health. Plenty of discussion, plenty of laughs, and some important messages for all of us.
A huge thanks to everyone who helped make the night a success: Billy & Flo for cooking up a storm on the BBQ, Richard for keeping the tech under control, and Dunc & Zappa, helped transport our VIP guests back to the Point.
