Pub Yarns 2025 - Healthy Fathers, Healthy Families

Join us for an evening of honest conversation, connection, and community at Pub Yarns 2025 – an event dedicated to breaking down stigma and empowering the role of fathers in shaping healthier futures for our children.

Whether you're a father, have a father, or care about the future of mental health and family wellbeing, this event is for you. Bring a mate, a father figure, or someone who’d benefit from being part of the conversation.

6:00pm – 7:00pm: Wine, Food and Mingling
Ease into the night with a wine tasting from the incredible Ohkela Wines. Let winemaker Gabe introduce you to his handcrafted, minimal-intervention wines, a beautiful expression of the Great Southern region.

Wines by the glass or bottle will be available for purchase, alongside beers, soft drinks, and a limited food menu with inclusive dietary options.

7:00pm – 8:00pm: Honest Yarn and Q&A
Hear from Vincent Mancini, Senior Research Fellow (PhD Clinical Psychology), and hear, a courageous lived experience advocate, as they share powerful insights on fatherhood, mental health, and healing.

Stick around for an open Q&A – your chance to listen, ask questions, and be part of the change.

Come for the yarn, stay for the connection. Together, we can shift the narrative.
No cost. No pressure. Just real talk and good people.
