Fundraiser for Slater and the Kidd Family 💙
Event Date: Saturday, 25th October 2025
Venue: Beresfield Bowling Club, Rainbow Room
Time: 7:00pm to Late
This fundraiser is being organised to support Slater and the Kidd family during an incredibly difficult time. Slater, just 15 years old, has recently been diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy at Westmead Children’s Hospital. His mum is by his side every step of the way, while his dad continues to work to help keep things together at home.
The sudden change in their lives has brought with it immense emotional and financial strain. The Kidd family are showing incredible strength and resilience, but they cannot face this battle alone. By coming together as a community, we can help ease some of the burden so they can focus on what matters most, supporting Slater through his treatment and recovery.
All proceeds from this event will go directly towards living costs, travel, and essential expenses to allow the Kidd family to focus on Slater’s recovery.
