The Trust has benefited greatly from their leadership, devotion, service, contributions and generosity.

They act in the best interests of the charity at all times and in accordance with the Trust’s governing document and ensure that the charity complies with all applicable laws including charity law, company law, health and safety law, data protection law and employment law.

It was an honour to accept the invitation to be the founding Chairperson of the HLCT.
As Chief Executive Officer of Specialist Services Medical Group I was acutely aware of the need for a treatment option for patients in the Hawkesbury District.
Thanks to the hard work by my fellow trustees and support from the Richmond Club we were able to see that eventuate.
The Trust is continuing to support the Oncology Unit at the Hawkesbury Hospital financially and providing support for other community organisations in the district that work tirelessly to help those in need.

I was delighted to take on the role of Trustee for HLCT when approached by Richmond Club as my sister who lived in the Hawkesbury with her young family was diagnosed with cancer and sadly passed away in 2002.
By accepting the position of Founding Trustee and focusing on getting the Oncology Unit up and running at Windsor Hospital has enabled me to leave a legacy to my sister and inspire hope in the hearts of all patients which is only possible by the continuous support of the Hawkesbury community.
