WomDomNom

"WomDomNom" is an organised four day paddle starting from Wellington on Macquarie.

It is designed to be recreational paddle, with an emphasis to encourage paddling on the Macquarie River. It is a fully supported paddle, with your camping equipment transported between camping spots. All meals and soft drinks are provided over the 4 days, and you will be on the water for roughly 6 hours per day. The events will raise much needed funds for Black Dog Institute.

Black Dog Institute's research shows that exercise has many benefits for physical and mental health. Just 15 minutes to an hour of excercise has been shown to reduce the risk of major depression by 26%.

We are paddling because 1 in 5 of us will experience symptoms of mental illness in any given year. In Australia that’s around 5 million people. Roughly 60% of these people won’t seek help.
