Ralph Kelly

Ralph Kelly’s life changed forever in July 2012, when his son Thomas was murdered in Kings Cross.

He was on a night out with his friends, when he was struck in the head in an unprovoked attack on Victoria Street.

Since then, through his organisation the Thomas Kelly Foundation and initiatives like Safe Spaces, Ralph has been dedicating his life to changing Australia’s drinking culture.

But it hasn’t always been a smooth ride, with Sydney’s nightlife a cultural hot point.
