Photos of the glitz and glamour of 'Speakeasy Carnival' to support youth mental health
A high-glamour fundraising event at Bartholomew's bar on King Street Friday night saw over 100 business leaders, philanthropists, and community leaders converge in the finest cocktail attire in the name of youth mental health.
The event, hosted by EquiEnergy Youth - the young people's mental health support outfit founded by Stephen Spencer - staged a 'speakeasy carnival' with themes lifted from a Fitzgerald novel to raise support for the one in five children and adolescents who will experience serious psychological distress in the next year.
The McDougall Foundation - former Newcastle Knight Adam MacDougall's charity - sponsored the event and staged a panel discussion with the city football greats, McDougall, Kurt Gidley and Chris Houston on the night.
"We're all passionate about mental health and making a difference, particularly with youth," McDougall told the Newcastle Herald earlier this week.
Equi Energy Youth gives adults "the knowledge to support the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people".
The Newcastle-based organisation's "psychological first aid" program gives adults simple steps to follow to help young people through distress.
