New Bus for Braemar

Earlier this year we visited Braemar Hospital to record the fund-raising activities of friends of the hospital The objective for this very hardworking band was a bus to take children at the hospital for picnics, educational tours and similar outings. Last month we visited the hospital again, this time to record the completion of the project - the handing over of a bus to the hospital. About $750 was raised at the garden party and the Sutherland Trust provided a further $1000 to buy the former Railways Department vehicle.
