Dear friends and colleagues,

Unfortunately The MensWork Project team are postponing the launch event on the 16th of January.  For those who have accepted our invitation, thanks for the support and we will keep you posted on any future resurrection of the event. 

We believe this event is an important way to showcase our initiatives, and particularly to hear, via the forum section of the evening, feedback and other’s views on programs for men in WA.

Below is our program of events for 2012 to give you an overview of what we plan for this year.  If you would like full information on any of these events please get back to me or give me call.

In the meantime, for those with an interest in the Men in Bali retreats and would like to rub shoulders with us and previous participants in the retreats, there is a Breakfast at Peter Efford’s house, 2 Healey Place, Gooseberry Hill on Sunday the 22nd of January at 08.00 am.  RSVP is essential, so contact Peter on epj@iinet.net.au or 9293 2363 to secure a place.
