Parenting - Change is possible!

Join us for a forum focussed on positive masculinity – respect, consent and violence prevention. This conversation is designed for all parents/caregivers of adolescence and teenager children presented by Richie Hardcore.

“Richie Hardcore is a public speaker, consultant, educator and advocate. His work discusses masculinity, mental health, social media, pornography, sex and consent and how we can end sexual and domestic violence. While the topics he discusses are serious, he talks about them in a relatable and digestible way. 

He has a Master's degree in Sociology, is a White Ribbon New Zealand ambassador, and is part of the New Zealand Ministry  of Social Development’s ‘Change is Possible’ anti-domestic violence campaign.

He was a multiple New Zealand champion in Muay Thai, and now he has retired from fighting is a coach and trainer.
