On 30 September 2022 we hosted our first Trivia Night to raise funds and aweness of Australian Rotary Health's 'Lift the Lid on mental illness' campaign.
All money raised from the night went towards the campaign which focuses on providing funding for research into preventative and curative solutions for mental illness in young Australians.
Specifically, this year's funds will be targeted at improving mental health outcomes for primary school aged children.
Fundraiging Director Garry McKenzie was quoted in an Article in The Courier on 27 September... "Mental health is reaching epidemic proportions and I think we're all touched by it one way or another."
"It is quite bad here (Ballarat). We're all aware of that and statistically, we're right up there but you can make a difference by having a bit of fun; it's as simple as that."
