Titans 'slip' into action for Stress Down day
Jetstar Gold Coast Titans dynamic duo Nathan Friend and Luke O?Dwyer put their slippers on and relaxed today with students at the Titans Learning Centre in support of Lifeline?s Stress Down Day.
Students at the Titans Learning Centre (TLC) slipped into their pajamas for a fun-filled day of learning with their local NRL heroes.
Stress Down Day, to be held this Friday, July 23, encourages schools and workplaces to have fun in wearing slippers or dressing up or down for the day.
Friend says kicking the football and playing on the trampoline with his two sons, Axel and Oliver, helps him relax as he shares the influence of his supportive, stress-free parents.
?I was lucky to be brought up with stress free parents but unfortunately today parents can be little bit on edge by finance and other things,?? said Friend.
?Unfortunately the child seems to be the one that suffers because they don?t get the love that?s required because parents are stressed.??
?I think it?s great what Lifeline are doing.
?Sometimes it?s people you least expect to call up for help and you never know you may be there one day.??
The TLC initiative provides players with opportunities to engage with young minds whilst being role models and Jetstar Titans Community Program Manager Sharon Hodges said today?s ?Stress Down? theme was a positive message for everyone.
?Nathan and Luke are really good guys that love spending time with kids, relaxing, reading and doing what they love?, said Hodges.
?Stress down day is all about raising awareness and funds for lifeline?.
Lifeline?s Stress Down Day provides Australians with information related to stress, with funds going to Lifeline?s 24-hour telephone services.
Stress Down Day is being held this Friday, July 23 and is recognised as Lifeline?s key national fundraising campaign.
