24.01.2022 In 2019, the Michael Hughes Foundation won an award. We were recognised with Excellence in Social Enterprise at the Business Australia State Awards at the ICC Sydney. The Foundation is a registered charity but we operate as a social enterprise, providing defibrillator packages, first aid equipment and delivering high quality first aid training. This is one way we remain sustainable for the long term and how we can ensure we can focus on advocacy and creating change with the ...response to cardiac arrest. Our Executive Director Julie Hughes accepted the award on behalf of the whole MHF team. Although she was lost for words, she got a cuddle from Magda Szubanski Watch the video here: http://ow.ly/i5Bh50CF41Q Parramatta Chamber of Commerce #MHFLife #MHFTurns5 #HappyBirthday #Memories #call #push #shock #cpr #legacy

Here is an overview of Jo so you can get to know her a little more: **What is your current role at MHF?**... I am a proud new Ambassador for the Michael Hughes Foundation. **Why did you join MHF?** I met the MHF team whilst I was working on their Stayin Alive Gala in 2018.

I wanted to get more involved and share my fundraising expertise to both their awareness raising and charitable initiatives. **What's the most rewarding part of MHF?** It is rewarding to be able to offer my experience in the charity sector to an organisation who is truly making a difference particularly when the result is helping to save lives.

15.01.2022 In December 2015, the Michael Hughes Foundation became a registered charity. We didn't want to go down that path but we became aware of the challenges and wanted to make a difference. 4 founding Directors including Julie Hughes, Kevin McSweeney, Sam Issa and David Lamond started the Foundation with an initial focus on Parramatta and Western Sydney. The mission was born to Turn Bystanders Into First Responders. In April 2016, Julie Hughes spoke with Bill Woods on Radio 2UE. Th...at discussion focussed on the start of the journey, the challenges and what we were trying to achieve. It also focussed on the Parramatta Lord Mayor's Gala Dinner in 2016. Grab a coffee and listen to her radio interview here: https://youtu.be/3FNJXReoFFM As a social enterprise, you can support us in the following ways: Buy: http://ow.ly/ycfY50C8j55 Learn: http://ow.ly/8CNb50C8j56 Give: http://ow.ly/BAd350C8j58 City of Parramatta OLC - Parramatta - Our Local Community #mhflife #mhfturns5 #happybirthday #memories #call #push #shock #cpr #legacy

Tracey Sharman has joined our Foundation recently as a Director and already assumed the role of Company Secretary. **What is your current role at MHF?** I have recently been appointed as a non-executive Board Director and assumed the role of Company Secretary.... **Why did you join MHF?** I met Julie Hughes at a Company Director course at the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Julie shared with me the purpose of the Foundation and why it was formed. Such a simple concept that can make a huge difference; 'Turn Bystanders into First Responders'. I jumped when the opportunity arose to join the Board and utilise my skills to be part of a team that enables this. **What's the most rewarding part of MHF?** So far, seeing what the Foundation has achieved over its first five years, hearing the vision, and being part of the team shaping the strategy for the next five years.

12.01.2022 As todays #MeetTheTeam contribution and the final edition in our series, we want you to meet Julie Hughes, MHFs Executive Director. We spoke to Julie about her current role at MHF and why the organisation was established in 2015: **What is your current role at MHF?**... I am the Executive Director of MHF. I am responsible for the overall running and various business aspects of the Foundation and I regularly represent MHF at its advocacy, training and marketing initiatives. **Why did you join MHF?** I am one of the Founding Directors of MHF. Our team established this organisation to affect tangible change to this health issue and to create a legacy for Michael (my husband) who died from cardiac arrest in 2013. **What's the most rewarding part of MHF?** For me personally, the most rewarding part of what I do is the grassroots community engagement. Our conversations do help save lives by increasing knowledge and confidence for people to act and give it a go (basic first aid). I have personally had the traumatic experience of responding to Michael at home when he collapsed and although it is bittersweet, I always love speaking about him and knowing that we are making a very meaningful and long-lasting difference across New South Wales.
