The Dampier Sharks from the North Pilbara Football League hosted the Heart and Sole Mental Health Run on Saturday 13th of April. With around 150 residents participating in the 7km fun run, they raised more then $2000. The purpose of the day was to raise awareness of the local foundations and organisations present in their community that assists people with mental health. The proceeds went to the Karratha Men's Shed and Karratha Women's Place. The family friendly day not only had the fun run but the support from local businesses and individuals who donated their time and services. There was face painting and a bouncy castle, with the catering covered by the Sharks sponsor Cherratta Lodge
Mental Health is such a raw topic for our Country Football Clubs currently and we applaud the Dampier Sharks for raising this awareness in their community.
