Congratulations Dr Nick Hartnell!

Today The George Centre took the opportunity to congratulate Dr Nick Hartnell - this years winner of the InnovationAus Paul Shetler Disruptor of the Year Award.

This award celebrates individuals who have made a significant impact on their respective sectors by demonstrating an unwavering vision for what is possible. They predict future trends, identify new opportunities, and take bold risks, driving disruptive change through a relentless focus on challenges and opportunities, coupled with a willingness to fight.

We are very excited for Dr Hartnell's achievement and proud to have him as one of our hospital's orthopaedic team.

On behalf of all The George Centre - congratulations and well done Dr Hartnell.

The George Centre wishing tree

The final gifts were received by our wishing tree and delivered to the Shining Stars Foundation team this morning and the response was absolutely overwhelming.

On behalf of the Shining Stars Foundation we take this opportunity to pass on our gratitude to everyone who gave a gift to help someone enjoy something special at Christmas.

A special shout out to Sue one of our registered midwives who donated all the gifts you see in the trolley and the box in her photo (2nd image) by doing the return and earn bottles. What an amazing effort! Thank you Sue!!!

Shining Stars Foundation's motto is "Together we make a difference". Their services don't stop at Christmas but run throughout the year providing food support and other essentials to those in need.

Christmas is coming - soon!

All our teams are excited and in the Christmas spirit - with lots of Christmas magic sprinkled all over The George Centre.

Thank you to all our generous Christmas elves who have placed a gift under the Wishing Tree. Just a reminder that our Wishing Tree will again be supporting the Shining Stars Foundation Street Outreach Service - a 100% volunteer run registered not for profit that focuses on the homeless & less fortunate with both homeless and community outreach programs across our region.

The sleigh leaves to deliver all the gifts donated to Shining Stars on 9th December - so if you would like to donate but have not yet been able to do so, please have your goodies in place by then.

And best wishes for a joy filled Christmas from our family to yours.
