Men's Health Panel

BEYOND THE BANTER

Beyond the Banter is a unique men’s event. A social gathering where the conversation intentionally goes a little deeper.

As part of Men’s Mental Health Week, you’re invited to Clovelly Surf Club for a relaxed, casual, men-only evening focused on community, connection, and the real challenges men are facing right now.

We’ve pulled together a distinguished panel of local legends, sports veterans, and experts for a genuine conversation about mateship, dropping the expectations, navigating the pressure and showing up fully in our lives. A conversation you will not want to miss, with honest insights from men who are walking the walk.

Featuring:
