A huge thank you to everyone involved in pulling together and celebrating Festival of Now on Friday. We could not be more happy with the weather, the turn out, and the spirit of the day.
There are so many people that made this event possible: from our generous sponsors, to our amazing performers, and dedicated committee.
Special thanks to Daljeet, Chahat restaurant and Australian Sikh Support for the delicious food, to Bean There Drank That Coffee, and to Bickford’s Australia and Remedy Drinks for the cool beverages.
We’d like to thank you the NGOs who contributed to FON in 2021: Uniting SA, Flourish Australia, Uniting Communities, Life Without Barriers, Skylight Mental Health, Neami National, Mind Australia, Wellbeing SA, Centacare Catholic Family Services, Relationships Australia South Australia, Hutt St Centre, the Commissioner for Children and Young People SA, Youth Opportunities Australia Limited, Carers SA, Community Support Incorporated, batyr UniSA, SA Lived Experience Leadership & Advocacy Network, OARS Community Transitions, and SALHN Lived Experience Network.
Plus a wide range of other NGOs and community groups donating their time and efforts, and City of Adelaide for their generous community development grant.
Without your financial and in-kind support, the Mental Health Coalition of South Australia could not put this day together for the sector and wider community.
We’re so lucky that we were able to be together in person to connect, celebrate mental health and wellbeing, share stories, and learn this October. We can’t wait for 2022!
