Odyssey Women's Lunch 2026

The Odyssey Women’s Lunch raises vital funds to support families experiencing challenges with alcohol and other drug use. By attending, you will help ensure parents and children can access the support they need to build safer, more stable futures together. 

You’ll hear from an inspiring group of speakers who bring a breadth of experience and perspective, shaping a conversation grounded in insight, storytelling, and shared experience. 

Our 2026 speakers include: 

• Marcia Hines – one of Australia’s most beloved music icons, with a career spanning more than five decades and a long-standing commitment to mentoring emerging artists. 

• Professor Jennifer Westacott AC – Chancellor of Western Sydney University and a leading voice in business, policy, and economic reform. 

• Jess Gallagher – a dual summer and winter Paralympic medallist and the first Australian to achieve this milestone. 

Funds raised through the event support Odyssey House NSW’s Reconnecting Families Program, which works alongside parents and children to help rebuild relationships and create more stable futures.

Through a combination of residential support, parenting programs, and services focused on children’s wellbeing, families are supported to stay connected during recovery and beyond. 

Join us to be part of a community committed to strengthening families and creating lasting change. 

Single tickets and tables of 10 are available. All genders are welcome at this inclusive event.
