The stall was themed around the question, 'How do you shine on with your chosen family?' with hundreds of fair-goers sharing their thoughts. Check out some of the excellent contributions below or view the full album.
The whole team at ReachOut is grateful to EY for their ongoing support, which enabled us to play an important role at Fair Day for the third year running. Thousands of Fair Day attendees visited the ReachOut stall on the day, with staff from both organisations chatting with fairgoers about how ReachOut helps young people and families with whatever life throws at them.
ReachOut Chief Executive Officer Ashley de Silva said that Fair Day was a great opportunity to let even more people know about ReachOut.
'ReachOut provides support to thousands of LGBTQIA+ young people each year when it comes to their mental health and wellbeing. Together with EY, we were proud to be part of Fair Day for Sydney Mardi Gras 2020.'
'On the day, ReachOut was able to connect with attendees on the topic of chosen families, which we know are particularly important to the LGBTQIA+ community when it comes to being happy and well' he said.
