A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for Norman’s Big Lunch.
We’re also incredibly grateful to Peter Fegan for hosting, and to Ash Barty for being part of the day.
It was a truly special afternoon, made even better by the incredible support of Hancock Agriculture, who supplied the outstanding S. Kidman Premium beef, along with ###X and Bleasdale Wines.
Together, we raised almost $8,000 for the Ash Barty Foundation, supporting programs that create more opportunities for young Australians in sport and education.
Thank you for being part of something so meaningful.
