They hold the intention to normalise mental health problems and mental illness\, promote conversations around these and offer pathways for seeking further support. \nWe use driving and the shared enthusiasm for cars and great roads as our way of connecting and escaping downward emotional spirals. We know that connection is vital for mental wellbeing\, and DAD events deliver this in spades.  \nDAD isn’t a club\, it’s a community. Please don’t feel you need to have a particular model or age of car to attend – if you love it\, bring it.  \nOur drive days are strictly social and non-competitive. We use open roads and carefully plan our drive routes to make them as safe and logical as possible\, while using engaging roads with new scenery for a great day out.  \nWe advocate for using DAD drive days as an inclusive environment to start your mental health conversation where you feel comfortable to do so\, however DAD drive days are not a crisis service and keeping everyone safe on the road is of utmost importance.  \n  \nWhat’s Happening for the Brisbane Summer Drive Day in December 2025?  \nFor our final event for 2025\, we’re collaborating with our friends at Ford Australia to bring you a relaxed cruise featuring beautiful roads and scenery\, and a relaxed setting with a welcoming community.  \n\nThis time of year brings a mix of feelings and experiences – from excitement and anticipation to worry and sadness\, and plenty more in between. Whatever the end-of-year season means for you\, we encourage you to take the time you need to look after your mental wellness.\n\n\nIf that means getting together with a welcoming community for a day of great roads and a fun drive\, we’d love to see you in Brisbane.\n \n\n\nDate:Sunday 7th December\nArrival time: From 8:00am\nBriefing and event start: Participant briefing at 9:00am\, heading off at 9:30am\nStarting at: Sunshine Ford. 292 Southport Nerang Road\, Southport QLD 4215\nEnding at: Wynnum Ambulance Museum. 33 – 35 Tingal Rd\, Wynnum QLD 4178\n\n \n \nRegister below to book your attendance – we’re excited to share this event with you! \nThe full event details and drive route pack will be emailed to registered participants in advance of the event.  \n\nEvent Supporters \nDrive Route and Vehicle Support\nOur friends at Ford Australia have worked through the planning\, mapped the drive route\, and provided vehicle and logistics support for the DAD team to travel to Brisbane to deliver this event.  \nStart Location\nWe’re sincerely grateful to the team at Sunshine Ford for hosting the start of our event and putting on another barbecue breakfast.  \nEnd Location\nThe volunteers at Wynnum Ambulance Service are opening their venue exclusively for our group to view the automotive collection\, gather for lunch and hear from a member of Queensland Ambulance Service to learn about how mental health calls are handled when a 000 call is made.

We’re thrilled to offer a unique Drive Day for our Sunshine State crew on 2nd June 2024\, where our drive will conclude at the Bowden Car Collection on the Sunshine Coast – a stunning collection of rare and unique cars owned by the crew at Bowden’s Own. \nWith the support of Bowden’s Own\, we’re cruising through the lesser-travelled roads of the Sunshine Coast to end with a charity tour of the Bowden’s private car collection. This is a spectacular opportunity that is no longer offered to the general public\, so we are incredibly grateful to the team at Bowden’s Own for inviting our DAD drive participants in for a look at their private collection. \nThe Bowden family shares our passion for driving mental wellness – they also understand how important it is to have something to look forward to and the positive impact that has on mental health. We extend our gratitude to the Bowden’s for offering this truly memorable experience.  \n> Places are fully subscribed for this event and registration is now closed.\n> The participant pack will be provided to all registered participants on Friday 31st May. \n  \n  \n  \n*Event Terms & Conditions URL:https://legacy.driveagainstdepression.com.au/event/2024-brisbane-winter-drive/ LOCATION:Brisbane\, Australia CATEGORIES:Queensland Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://legacy.driveagainstdepression.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/2024-Queensland-Drive-Day.png ORGANIZER;CN="Sarah Davis":MAILTO:connect@driveagainstdepression.com.au END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
