We are proud and excited to continue our partnership with Mongrels Men.

Westfield Warringah Mall recognises the significant contribution that Mongrels Men has made to our community by supporting men through mental health challenges.

In 2023, founder and volunteer Director of Mongrels Men, Tim Hewson was named our Local Hero, receiving a $20,000 grant towards his organisation. Mongrels Men used the funds to expand their Community Meet Up program and provide men from the local community with mental health tools. Read more about Tim's story here

What you can expect in 2026

In 2026, we’re excited to bring key initiatives back to the centre. In October, we’ll also host a community BBQ in support of Men’s Mental Health Month — creating a relaxed and welcoming space for conversation, connection and awareness around men’s wellbeing.

Together, we look forward to continuing to create opportunities that bring our community together and support the important work Mongrels Men delivers across the Northern Beaches.
