WP Connect Golf Day at North Ryde Golf Club on Friday 3rd November 2023
It’s Robert Radley former cricketer at Gordon and Mosman Cricket Clubs in Sydney.
I wanted to share some details around a little community we’ve created called WP Connect
WP Connect first came about in 2016, beginning as The Hope Challenge after a friend in our community lost their battle with mental health. While a shared loss initially brought a bunch of mates together, many shared our experience and felt the same drive to do something about it.
WP Connect hosts various events including The Hope Challenge and an annual golf tournament in hopes of raising awareness of mental health within the community. As of 2023 it has raised over $100,000 in donations to the Black Dog Institute; a proud result from a small community.
Black Dog invests in research, education, clinical services, and digital tools to discover new solutions and create genuine change.
