REWIND
Let’s have a look at what Wanderers have been doing in the community the past few weeks.
Golgol Mebrahtu: Miniroos
Golgol Mebrahtu helped inspire the next generation to play football as he attended a Miniroos program at Valentine Sports Park.
Race 4 Grace
Alusine Fofanah and Daniel Alessi had their fitness tested as they jumped on the spin bikes to raise money for charity. The money will be used for panda beds for new borns at the Children’s Hospital at Westmead.
Brendan Hamill: White Ribbon Awareness Talk
Brendan Hamill is a White Ribbon Ambassador and went to Doonside Technology High School to raise awareness for White Ribbon. He spoke about what a healthy relationship looks like, how real men show they are tough and why it is important to speak up about domestic violence.
