22.01.2022 Absolutely devastating news. Our thoughts go out to Allisons family, friends and colleagues. Associate Professor Allison Milner started her PhD on suicide prev...ention with funding support from Australian Rotary Health in 2008. Her PhD study was the first to identify a relationship between globalisation and population-level rates of suicide. She had since become an accomplished researcher on topics such as work-related stressors, disability and suicide. https://buff.ly/2H2H7sE

18.01.2022 Rotary Bowelscan kits now available at both pharmacies in Mansfield. About Bowelscan Rotary Bowelscan is the initiative of over 300 Rotary Clubs across Australia, working to reduce the number of lives lost to bowel cancer.... The programme runs during one month every year to raise the awareness of the risks of bowel cancer and to encourage Australians most at risk (those aged over 40) to take the annual test. With the support of hundreds of pharmacies throughout Australia, the programme distributes Bowelscan testing kits to local communities, giving people the opportunity to test themselves early and regularly enough to have a fighting chance at survival. Bowelscan kits are affordable, easy to use and include pathology testing by accredited pathologists such as Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology. All proceeds from the kits are put back into the programme to allow it to continue to provide this valuable community service. Our History The idea behind Rotary Bowelscan was first developed in 1982 in northern New South Wales by a local doctor and fellow Rotarian, Dr Bill Brand who identified the need for a low cost, easy to use diagnostic test for bowel cancer. Since these humble beginnings, the programme has grown significantly with the support of Australian Rotary Health, participating pharmacies and Rotary volunteers to continue to save the lives of thousands of Australian men and women from bowel cancer.

14.01.2022 Rotary History Bite #1/100: Where it all started History Speaks of 100 years: Rotarys first headlines The Argus, Melbourne Saturday 26th March 1921: Lieut.-Co...lonel J L Ralston, CMG, DSO, KC, and Mr. James W Davidson are visiting Australia as commissioners for the extension among professional and business men of the Rotary Club movement which claims about 80,000 members in Canada, the British Isles and the United States. The Rotary Club movement had its beginning in 1905 and has for its slogan He profits most who serves best. In each club there can only be one representative of each line of business and each profession. Its aim is to encourage and foster high ethical standards in business and profession. Ralston and Davidson only met in Los Angeles on their trip to Australia and New Zealand. But from their endeavours, within weeks, the first Rotary meetings were conducted in Melbourne, Sydney, Wellington and Auckland. From there, our history Down Under began!!

02.01.2022 This was very likely the first time a Rotarian contributed to a better Mansfield! Monier Bridge (1903) built by John Monash (later General Sir John Monash) and Anderson. "The bridge over Fords creek in High Street was opened on Saturday in the presence of nearly 200 people, it being tested by Mr J Crocketts traction engine loaded up to eight and a half tons, which it stood well, it being guaranteed up to 25 tons, although this weight could hardly be got on to it all at on...e time. After the opening an adjournment was made to wet it." (Courier) Sir John joined the Rotary Club of Melbourne in 1921, when two commissioners, both of whom had served under Monash in France, were sent to Australia to bring Rotary to our country. There is no doubt that those interested in forming a Rotary Club at that time would have wanted an important figure such as Monash to be a member. Subsequently, Monash became a Charter member and, later, the second President of the Rotary Club of Melbourne. (Pic courtesy of www.highcountryhistory.org.au
