We were proud to be a sponsor of the Calvary Mater Newcastle Calvary Mater Newcastle Bowel Cancer Research Ball, a wonderful event supporting vital bowel cancer research trials and bringing together clinicians, researchers and the broader community.

The evening was a meaningful reflection of the generosity, passion and strong community spirit that makes the Hunter region so special. We were delighted to connect with so many like‑minded supporters who share a commitment to improving outcomes for patients and their families.

Thanks to the collective generosity on the night, approximately $54,000 was raised, directly supporting life‑saving research, increased awareness and improved patient outcomes.

We are honoured to support initiatives that truly make a difference.

This Falls Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness about falls prevention and supporting those at risk.

After surgery or a procedure, falls can happen more easily due to factors like:
🔹 Poor balance & low blood pressure
🔹 Medications that cause dizziness
🔹 Inactivity during recovery

It’s important to stay safe both in hospital and at home. Simple fall prevention tips, like staying active and creating a safe environment, can help reduce falls and prevent injuries.
