Perth Rotary’s seventh lunch meeting of our Centenary Year was chaired by Past Presidents Stephen Inouye and George Etrelezis, who created an enjoyable and informative event for members and guests.
Members heard from Cate Harman, Managing Director, and Maxine Wood, Clinical Nurse Specialist, both of MAADA, who spoke on “MADDA: Making an Impact – Shaping the Future.”
Cate shared the story of MADDA’s evolution, including its transition from Reflections to MADDA one year ago, and how this change has strengthened the organisation’s ability to support a broader community affected by dust-related diseases. Maxine then spoke about MADDA’s specialist support services and the organisation’s plans to expand this important work into the future.
The lunch also included a fun moment, with Past President George Etrelezis leading members through a game that brought plenty of energy and good humour to the room.
A special highlight of the meeting was the induction of two new Rotarians, Leanora Ngy and Marika Lewis. Leanora joins as a corporate member representing Business Events Perth, while Marika brings strong experience in business, management and community service. Their induction also marked a significant milestone, helping bring Perth Rotary’s membership to 100 members in our Centenary Year.
Join us for our next Perth Rotary lunch on Friday 16 October, where Emeritus Professor Alan Harvey will speak on “Music, Movement and Healthy Aging": https://www.trybooking.com/DPWGP
