What. A. Night! ✨
Last Thursday 4 April 2024, we celebrated the launch of our new Peer Mentoring program – a program all about connecting people with disability with those with lived experience, to increase their social connections and community relationships.
We had such a fun night with plenty of games, food, drinks, and most importantly, we had the opportunity to connect and form strong bonds with those in our community 🤗
A massive thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate our launch, as well as Hard Days Night ADL for the awesome venue, Peter from 7 Fold Media for capturing the night, and to our fabulous organisers and Board that made this night happen.
It means the world to us and we’re so excited for what’s to come!
Highlights from the night include;
- People playing cards & then giant jenga
- Sketch artist Travis from Let’s Tawk sketching his heart out and people lined up
- A school student talking to Dr Guy Turnbull about a career in support work
- People genuinely laughing, in a social setting
- All sorts of people who work in the sector who’s never experienced a night like it
- Lots of discussions around the meaning of mentors & mentees
- Live activity matching
- And everyone agreeing that the venue was a perfect setting!
