We farewelled one of the most passionate and dedicated supporters of children’s health care in the region – the long-serving Kids of Macarthur Health Foundation Chief Executive Officer Denise McGrath. 💛

Since the foundation's launch in 2000, Denise has been the driving force behind its mission to support the health and wellbeing of local children. Under her leadership, Kids of Macarthur became Macarthur’s premier children’s charity, purchasing cutting-edge paediatric medical equipment for the eight paediatric units across Campbelltown and Camden Hospitals - from the Children’s Unit and Paediatric Emergency to the Special Care Nursery, Maternity, Delivery, Postnatal wards, Mental Health and Community Health.

Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals General Manager Grant Isedale congratulated Denise on her amazing contribution to the foundation and wished her well in her retirement.

“Denise’s dedication has helped transform hospital experiences for families and has ensured that local children receive the highest standard of care, close to home,’’ Grant said.

“Denise’s passion, kindness and tireless work have touched thousands of lives over the past 25 years. She has built a legacy that will continue to uplift our hospitals, our clinicians and most importantly our children.’’

Thank you Denise, for your dedication and incredible contribution to the children of our community. ✨
