ANTIPODES GREEK FESTIVAL
Our stall was well-attended on both days of the festival, with great interest being shown in our information pamphlets, merchandise and lolly jar competition. There were many members of the public interested in the family planning information and the idea of genetic testing
Our goals for the event were to raise awareness and increase engagement, which we achieved. Thank you to all who volunteered their time, especially Sally who worked diligently on all aspects of preparing for the event and who attended on both days.
