The Rally for Mouse is in honour of Wayne “Mouse” Perry, 42, who tragically lost his life on Sunday January 5, 2014. Salvation Army Major Brendan Nottle said the incident had touched the city and ignited a desire to do more for Melbourne’s vulnerable people.
Michael will provide entertainment at the Rally for Mouse alongside speakers including World Vision chief executive Tim Costello, Adam Bandt MHR, Mouse’s daughter Jaylee Watton-Perry, Mouse’s sister Michelle Perry and Melbourne Lord Mayor Robert Doyle, that will call for an end to street homelessness at a rally to honour a popular rough sleeper killed in the city last month.
As a sign of peace and trust, people are being encouraged to wear blue as an opportunity to say “sorry” about what happened to Mouse, welcome Melbourne’s homeless population as valued part of the community and call for an end to rough sleeping.
