Black Tie & Slippers Gala Dinner
About the Event
Join our amazing grassroots, mental health, disability and community - led not-for-profit organisations for the Black Tie & Slippers Charity Gala Dinner, hosted by The Noledge House, Stride for Better Mental Health, Our Future Mentors Indigenous Foundation, Reclink Australia, Healing with Love Notes and Warm Hearts Warm Bellies. You will not want to miss this event to be alongside SE Qld corporate leaders, change-makers, NDIS, mental health and disability leaders!
The Black Tie & Slippers Charity Gala reflects the contrast between the polished image we present to the world and the comfort, vulnerability and honesty we all seek behind closed doors. We are bringing together mental health, community NFP organisations, supporters, and community leaders from SE Qld to celebrate advocacy, resilience, meaningful connection, and the often-unseen work of our mental health and community heroes.
Tickets are $249 + GST and a booking fee (Virtual Tickets Available, too!). AfterPay is available at checkout.
Tickets include:
Two-course dinner
Delicious dessert bar
5-hour drinks package
Live Music with Don Rogers Music
Door prize entry - 3 nights in Port Douglas, including return airfares for 2 people!
Join The Noledge House and all of our amazing mental health and disability contributors for an evening of spectacular entertainment, charity and community. The Black Tie & Slippers Charity Gala highlights the normalisation of healthy conversations in everyday life, and this is a "must-attend" evening.
Show your support by wearing black tie attire with comfortable slippers. Oh, come on...We're not that traditional! If you want to rock a Tux and PJs or a Facinator and dressing gown, you do you! It's all about safe places and comfort!
