08.01.2022 From the Chair As a follow-up to Robyn te Velde’s update on the Illawarra’s Top Model competition and fundraising, I would like to extend my thanks to her for the amazing job she has done in supporting mental health in the Illawarra. Robyn’s tireless work has been central to keeping the doors of the Illawarra Clubhouse open and the fundraising campaigns she has spearheaded over the years have done a great deal to improve mental health awareness in our community. For those of... you who were unaware, not only was Robyn honoured with Wollongong Citizen of the Year this year, but she also received an Australian Honour’s award, the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in 2017. Although this was recognition for many of her contributions to the community, it was also recognition of her support for mental health as the Founder of Highlights on Mental Health and Illawarra’s Top Model.

02.01.2022 Special Thanks to our Major Sponsors and Community Partners 2016 Our valued Platinum Sponsors, South Coast Private Hospital has been at the centre of our journey and this year extended a $3000 Scholarship to reward an entrant who would perhaps never be a ‘finalist’ the Top Model or the Top Fundraiser, but one who engaged well with all aspects of the campaign, demonstrated strong commitment, good character and achieved significant personal development. The inaugural recipien...t for this award was Madelaine Baker, who as an entrant participated well with all aspect of the campaign. While she was not one of the finalists, Madelaine demonstrated gracious sportsmanship, and an enthusiastic attitude throughout the campaign. She took some great initiatives with her fundraising and made notable progress personally. Our Great Gold Sponsors, CORE Management EU, IOH, who have been pillars to our progress from the inception of this initiative. We welcome and appreciation our new Gold Sponsor Bendigo Bank , and in particular to Novotel Northbeach for providing the space for the coaching of all the ITM entrants and participants.

Congratulations to Roza and the team at Total Bliss Day Spar in Wollongong, winners in 2015 and again in 2016 for the styling for Finalist, Bree Millar. Our Media Partners WIN TV, i98FM and the Illawarra Mercury have made it possible to surge ahead with such success and effective community presence.
