Yasmin gave a brilliantly clear explanation of the work she has been involved in at the Malaghan Institute on some of the latest developments in immunology. She gave a brief background. She is a post graduate research student who has very nearly completed her PHD. The Malaghan Institute is an independent research organisation specialising in medical research. Based at Victoria University's Kelburn site it was originally called The Wellington Medical Research Institute but after a massive donation from Glen Malaghan, who founded Tip Top Ice cream it was renamed. It currently has 130 staff comprising 90 scientists and 40 support staff.
Eastern Hutt Rotary were immensely proud to be one the major supporters of this year's Te Omanga Hospice Golf Day today. Held at Boulcott's Farm Heritage Golf Club, 38 enthusiastic teams entered in support of this amazing Lower Hutt organisation. Raising a sum of around $65,000, this event was only possible through the very generous support of all its supporters and a successful auction- thanks to the bidders and our auctioneer, Doug Palmer.
Look at this pre-event build-up HERE, that was posted on Te Omanga's website.
Special thanks for the great work Jan Palmer and Brian Clarke in smoothly leading this valued relationship for this event.

Parting Thought
John Cole provided the parting thought at the end of our meeting -
"You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." CS Lewis
Please study and plan ahead, especially if your Committee needs to provide an updated Report. A reminder that it's also your responsibility to find a replacement if you are unable to fulfil your duty.
