Social & Information Evenings
 

The Branch organises a number of social evenings and information evenings throughout the year.

Typically up to 20 people will attend an information evening or social evening, with around 35 coming to our annual Christmas dinner.

 

Here are some examples of recent events hosted by Wellington Branch:

  • Social evening with National CEO Kate Russell. An informal supper evening held at a committee members home.
  • Farewell to Keith Grimwood. CF Paediatrician who left Wellington Paediatric Department to take up a new post in Melbourne. This was a well-attended social evening at Mac's Brewery on Wellington Waterfront, with branch members, clinic staff and National CEO, Kate Russell.
  • Australian Conference Feedback Evening. 3 Branch members gave presentations to share news from the Sydney Conference at the Angus Inn.
  • Christmas Dinner. A very successful evening at the Backbencher Pub in Wellington.
  • AGM at Johnsonville Community Centre.
  • E-Flow Information Evening wth EBOS Primary Care Manager. This was intended to support the generous donatation the branch received from Jenny Burns Trust, specifically to fund high quality nebulisers.
  • Farewell to Paediatrician Archie Kerr, retiring after 30 years at Hutt Hospital. Well attended by former patients and colleagues.
  • CF Winter Ball. Arranged by Charles Dunk (CF) and his partner, with the backing of the National Association, this exciting and very successful evening was a formal black tie "Scottish Ball", held at the Intercontinental Hotel in Wellington and raised $8,900 for CFNZ.
