Special thanks go out to all those individuals and organisations who helped bring the night together. We were fortunate enough to raise approximately $14000 on the opening night and this couldn’t be done without the generosity of our sponsors, family, friends and colleagues.

Thank you to Dr Norman Swan who gave a great synopsis of current government health funding. He outlined why it is so important for individuals and organisations to get behind arthritis and show their true support.

Many thanks to our other guest speakers, Sharon Freund (Arthritis Australia), Rowena Horne (Canteen Australia) and to our auctioneer, Rod Bosman.

Our High Altitude Sponsor, Cook + Phillip Park donated a membership to our auction and raffle and guest passes for the showbags. Thank you for your continual support.
