On Friday 23 December, we closed out the year with a bustling Christmas party for our patrons. Using the St John’s hall, and surrounding grounds, we welcomed over 150 people through the evening, serving them dinner and dessert.
First time Roughtober participant, Greg Colby, is sleeping rough in memory of his brother Les, who was a much beloved patron of Rough Edges for many years, until he passed away in July this year.
Rough Edges
Travelling from my work this week, I was struck by this image. The owner of these items (not in the photograph) was travelling on the same train with me. I observed him sitting away from his goods, which I assumed were all his material possessions. He was sitting on a bench, about 3-4 metres from the trolley.
Rough Edges
The Rough Edges team is taking a group of like-minded supporters to Perisher, NSW to conquer three of Australia’s tallest mountains over 18 kilometres, in one day. All while raising funds to help Rough Edges and the Community Assistance and Partnership Program. Be part of our first Inspired Adventure and raise much needed funds for Rough Edges.
Join the team at Rough Edges! Our volunteers are the lifeblood of our organisation, and the front line and face of our service. Our next information night is Thursday 27th April - join us to find out about how you can get involved.
