Fundraising activities will include a silent auction and balloon pop event, with great prizes to be won. Live music will be provided by Brad Butcher and Aarron Symonds.

“The event is not only for women – we welcome everyone who is wanting to support Dolly’s Dream, an organisation that is committed to changing the culture of bullying by addressing the impact of bullying, anxiety, depression and youth suicide, through education and direct support to young people and families,” organisers said.

“This is going to be an event not to miss – and all with the aim of raising as much as possible to be donated directly to Dolly’s Dream.”
