Networking Dinner
Guest Presenter | Pete Rourke

Pete Rourke is the founder of Project 365, a community-driven initiative created to raise awareness, spark conversations and provide meaningful support around mental health across our region. Driven by a passion to create positive change within rural communities, Pete has led Project 365 from an idea into a movement that continues to make a real impact. Through fundraising events, community engagement and open conversations, the initiative has helped break down stigma surrounding mental health while bringing people together through connection and support. Most notably, Project 365 has helped co-fund a youth mental health support worker in partnership with Gateway Health and Headspace, providing direct support pathways for young people in our community.
