Radio Lollipop Golf Day – Friday, 11th December 2020

We need to acknowledge the importance of friendship, to take opportunities to celebrate that friendship and acknowledge how lucky we are to still be able to swing a club with friends.

If you agree with the above philosophy, join me and others at this year’s ‘Celebration of Friendship’ event to be held on Friday, 11th December 2020 at the Palm Meadows Golf Course at Carrara and staying overnight next door at the Mercure Gold Coast Resort on the Gold Coast.

Sponsorship packages are available providing the opportunity to promote your company to this prestigious group.

Join Ossie Moore, twice Queensland PGA Champion and Ian Healy, Australian former International cricketer as we look forward to a great day and night of camaraderie and be entertained during dinner by Ossie and Ian as Mark Braybrook from SEN Radio chats with these Queensland icons!

Enjoy the fellowship while along the way, you will be supporting a volunteer charity that provides care, comfort, play and entertainment for children in hospital.

Gold Coast Radio Lollipop are visited by former NRL star Scott Prince

Posted on by

The Terrific Tuesday Gold Coast team were recently paid a special visit by former NRL football player Scott Prince and Coomera State High School Deputy Principle Dave Hartley.

The duo have teamed up to produce a book series specially aimed at children who are reluctant to read, engaging them with the topic of football.

Titled Deadly D and Justice Jones, the series features Deadly D, a boy by day and a football legend by weekend, and Justice Jones, his friend and sidekick who brings a cheekiness to the boys’ daily antics.

Scott and Dave accompanied our Gold Coast volunteers around the wards, handing out their books, signed posters and t-shirts. The pair were a welcomed distraction from hospital life as they spent time with each child, sharing stories about football, school and jokes. They even went as far as having a dance-off to in-house favourite, “Watch Me Whip” by Silento.

A special thanks to Dave Hartley and Scott Prince for their generosity in donating their books, posters, t-shirts, and most importantly, their personal time, to help Radio Lollipop create more magical evenings for sick children in hospital.

Book week celebrations at the Gold Coast Hospital

DSC_1011_CROPPEDFairytales, magic, talking animals and wild adventures, Radio Lollipop volunteers recently teamed up with the nurses of the Gold Coast University Hospital to help sick children live the magic and imaginations of popular childhood books.

Thanks to the coordination, dedication and kindness of locals, our volunteers received a collection of picture books and novels, reminiscent of their own childhood favourites and allowed them to connect with the children on a much deeper level.

The Gold Coast volunteers hand-delivered the donated books as prizes throughout the night, and their silly costumes and bright face-paint were a delighted distraction from medication and humdrum hospital routines.

For the volunteers, it was a rare but exciting opportunity to bond with the nurses over the dress-ups, as they too donned capes, wigs and full-bodied costumes to support the dream-like atmosphere.

In combining efforts with locals and nurses, Radio Lollipop Gold Coast continues striving to create the best bedside experience for children in hospital.
