Brunch and Discussions at Dubbo Rhino Lodge
On 17th May, Motherland will host a special Mother’s Day brunch at the Dubbo Rhino Lodge Function Hall. This event aims to support rural mothers in the Central West/Orana region, providing an opportunity for connection and community building.
The brunch will feature a grazing-style meal and a welcome drink. Attendees can explore a pop-up marketplace and engage in a panel discussion with local rural women sharing personal experiences of motherhood.
Motherland, a national charity, assists rural mothers across Australia by reducing isolation and improving mental health. The organisation offers virtual mothers’ groups, accessible to women with children up to 18 years old, regardless of their location.
