Join Us for an Inspiring Evening of Hope and Transformation

The Futures with Hope Mocktail Party is more than just an event—it’s a movement to create brighter futures for at-risk youth struggling with social connection, barriers to education, mental health issues, substance use, and pathways to employment. Hosted by Teen Challenge Tasmania, this alcohol-free evening invites you to take up a meaningful challenge: for one night, set aside the familiar to stand in solidarity with young people striving for a better future.

Set against a backdrop of flavourful mocktails, heartfelt stories, and vibrant community spirit, the Futures with Hope Mocktail Party offers a celebration like no other. Community leaders, compassionate individuals, and local businesses will come together for an evening of connection, creativity, and generosity—all to empower the next generation with the hope and opportunities they deserve.
