Acknowledgment of Lived Experience

We would like to recognise those with lived experience of mental health conditions in Australia. We acknowledge that we can only provide quality care through valuing, respecting, and drawing upon the lived experience and expert knowledge of consumers, their families, carers and friends, staff, and the local communities. We acknowledge their contribution to the development of mental health resources.

Billabong Clubhouse Comedy Gala

The Billabong Clubhouse Comedy Gala was a night filled with laughter, camaraderie, and community spirit. Hosted by the hilarious Lehmo, who kept the audience in stitches all night long, the event was held at the Tamworth Jockey Club.

The atmosphere was electric as attendees enjoyed delicious food catered by Every Occasion Catering and danced to the beats provided by Groove DJs. The night featured tons of exciting prizes and a lively auction, with all proceeds going back to support the Clubhouse.

Throughout the evening, we celebrated the support and contributions of our strategic partners, sponsors, and members. Heartwarming stories shared by our members highlighted the impact of the Clubhouse, reminding everyone of the vital role we play in the community. The gala was not just a night of entertainment but a testament to the power of coming together for a common cause, making it an unforgettable event.

Freezin' for a Reason - Community Connections Breakfast

On the 24th of May 2024, Billabong Clubhouse organised a community breakfast for local organisations to raise awareness of our program delivery and the Billabong Clubhouse. To add some 'spice' to the event, we created an ice bath challenge for seven community champions.

They were challenged to raise $500 each, and if they succeeded, they would take a 2-minute plunge into an icy bath early in the morning.

We are thrilled to report that each champion exceeded their fundraising goal, raising a total of $5013. These funds went straight to providing food for our soup kitchen. This amount surpassed our collective target of $3000.

We extend our gratitude to all our community partners who participated in the event and raised funds for a worthy cause. We are grateful for your support.
