About our Keynote Speaker:
Tom Nash had both his legs and arms amputated at the age of 19, the result of contracting the deadly Meningococcal Septicaemia. Not that he let that stop him from achieving his goals for life. Tom has a unique talent for captivating people with his personal story, his dark sense of humour and his incredible wit. You're not going to want to miss the opportunity to hear Tom's presentation.
About this year's charity:
Dads in Distress is a charity focused on supporting dads experiencing trauma related to family breakdown and separation. Separation from their former partner and from their children; a factor closely linked to suicide in Australia.
