Yesterday, we were incredibly honoured to be asked to hold our RASWA Councillors meeting at the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia - WA Operations (RFDS)
As part of RASWA’s Connecting Community’s initiative, where people and groups from all walks of life come together to celebrate, the RFDS and RASWA have aligned to work together with other community minded organisations, with a particular focus on rural Western Australia.
Councillors were shown the RFDS’ new aircraft which will cut response times to emergencies across rural WA.
Those buying tickets for this year’s show online will have the opportunity to donate to RFDS and support the incredible work they do in rural WA.
Be sure to say hello to the RFDS in the Discover WA Pavilion at the Show this year!
