EVENT BACKGROUNDThe Ted Noffs Foundation was founded by the great Australian humanitarian, Reverend Ted Noffs, in 1970. During his remarkable career of pioneering initiatives for young people, Ted Noffs established Sydney’s first 24 hour crisis centre in 1968, set up the first Drug Referral Centre in Sydney in 1967, co-founded the Aboriginal Affairs Foundation in 1962 and was the co-founder of Lifeline in 1963.

The Ted Noffs Foundation today continues the legacy of Ted Noffs by providing essential services for young people and their families who are experiencing drug and alcohol problems and related trauma. Its range of programs for young people are all based on leading research, continually evaluated and government endorsed.

EVENT DETAILSThe OVAL- in the day time, the oval will be set up for games and activities. The participants will be from the UNSW sporting groups, we are currently contacting all the groups, and asking them to sponsor a team with-in their sports group for the games day.

We are proposing this event to be a joint effort between Ted Noffs, UNSW ARC (student association), Sponsors and our event team.

throw eggs – group throw eggs in a distance, see which group catch the most no of non broken eggs.

The games will start with gathering all the groups together and the games will require one representative from each team. This setting can help heat up the atmosphere. After the individual games, we will move on to team games, which will require teamwork within a group. These are preliminary ideas, we are still refining them.
