Over the last year we had been thinking ‘wouldn’t it be great to have a lunch with the fun and frivolity of a traditional sports lunch, but with a greater focus on health and wellness – providing guests valuable takeaways’…
Two months ago, our director Joanne caught up with her old triathlon coach. Over coffee they determined they had the ingredients to bring this new concept to life.
- Timm Franklin– the man who had just run around the world and had a great story to share
- Amy Chapman- A Matilda and popular sports commentator
- Dr Glen Richards – One of Australia’s most prominent entrepreneurs in business and health
- Kimberley Busteed – One of Australia’s best MC’s
- and finally Inspiring Brighter Futures – who makes a real difference to the lives of so many.
Thank you to our incredible business friends who share a passion for health, wellness and supporting great causes -that joined us for The Power Lunch on Friday 25 October. Together we are so proud to announce we raised $25,675 for Inspiring Brighter Futures.
