Come and hear Noel look into the role of the Navy at Gallipoli.
He will cover
Australian forces were first in and last out at Gallipoli. The historian Charles Bean described the ANZAC spirit using the following words.
“Endurance, courage, ingenuity, resourceful, good humour, mateship and loyal”.
Noel Phelan's first career was as a science and mathematics teacher. He then moved into IT with IBM where he spent 25 years in various technical and management positions. He has been a volunteer guide at the Maritime Museum for several years and enjoys showing visitors over HMAS Vampire, HMAS Advance, HMAS Onslow and First Lady. Noel is also the team leader for the museum speakers.
Guests are always welcome.
The Rotary Club of North Sydney Sunrise (RCNSS) is expanding Rotary’s humanitarian reach internationally to endorse a project for Woodside Sanctuary in Johannesburg, South Africa – a home for profoundly intellectually and physically disabled. Founded in 1955 with the help of Rotarians, Woodside is at imminent risk of closure through lack of funds – after 68 years.
Today, Woodside is home to 84 profoundly intellectually and physically disabled residents (aged 3-67 years) who require lifelong care, where they receive tailored multidisciplinary care - nursing, stimulation (mental and physical) and well-being programs. Many have known no other home. Woodside is also a training hub for students completing practical coursework requirements (Social Work, Care Workers, and in some years OT), in this way spreading awareness about disability and uplifting standards of care in the sector.
Funds raised will enable Woodside to continue the service they provide to the most vulnerable -– with augmented advantage of foreign exchange to the Rand.
The project is registered with RAWCS (Rotary Australia World Community Service) with benefits of financial governance (donations accounted in their systems/ transferred directly to Woodside); tax deductibility for Australian donations and receipts issued by RAWCS; and extending networking reach in Australia, including to the South African community.
Please spread the word. They need a helping hand. To read more please have a look at:
