Putt for health

Master Plumbers is committed to supporting the health and wellbeing of our members and the industry they operate in. Unfortunately, the research shows that construction workers are six times more likely to die from suicide than an accident at work.

This year, Master Plumbers brought together almost 100 plumbing industry professionals to help raise funds for PukaUp, a social enterprise dedicated to delivering mental health and suicide prevention education programs.

PukaUp’s, mission is to end suicide through programs that empower people to have regular, honest conversations about mental health and to arm them with the tools to look after their wellbeing as part of everyday life.

The Golf Day, held at Woodlands Golf Club raised $10,000 for PukaUp and gave participants a chance to engage in some friendly competition and fun. A special congratulations to all the winners of the various challenges and prizes on the day.

Master Plumbers thanks event sponsors, Energy Smart Water and Thermal Energy Solutions as well as all our other sponsors for a great day.

A special thanks to AFL greats, Dermott Brereton and Corey McKernan, for supporting the Members Golf Day and for sharing stories on the day. It was great to see Dermott Brereton putt for PukaUp, showing his skills beyond football, much to the delight of those in his team.

With the bar set high by this year’s event, we eagerly anticipate the next opportunity to come together in support of a worthy cause.

Together, we can continue making a difference in the lives of those affected by mental health.
