Sydney Memory Walk & Jog

Did you know that Dementia is the second leading cause of death of Australians? As you may know, this is a cause really close to my heart. I am aiming to raise $200 in honour of my Mum and for all people living with dementia, their family and carers. You can support my journey by donating to my Memory Walk & Jog Page. Simply click on the link below: https://www.memorywalk.com.au/fundraisers/petermcandrew The more donations received, the closer we are to creating a dementia friendly world. Together we can beat dementia to the finish line! Thank you in advance for all your incredible support. Thanks.

Peter ian MCANDREW's Biggest Morning Tea

This year, I’m hosting an Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea to help Cancer Council raise vital funds for people impacted by cancer.
I’ve set a fundraising goal of $500 and I’m on the way to hitting it, but I could really use your help! The thing is, your donation will make a real difference. It’ll help fund world-class cancer research, which has already increased cancer survival rates from 49% in the 1980s to 69% today. It’ll fund prevention initiatives like the HPV vaccine and the new cervical screening program, which have put Australia on track to become the first country to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health problem. How incredible is that?! Plus, your donation will also importantly help fund support services for the 150,000 Australians who are diagnosed with cancer every year. With support services in higher demand than ever, your help now is particularly vital. So will you help me reach my goal? I’ve set up a fundraising page so it’s easy to donate online: https://www.biggestmorningtea.com.au/fundraisers/peterianmcandrew Together we can help Australia take big steps towards a cancer free future, so thank you again!

Walking together with First Peoples

As part of the Synod’s renewed commitment to walking together with First Peoples, Nathan Tyson, Synod’s manager of First People’s Strategy and Engagement, will present Aboriginal Cultural Capability modules. The modules provide a range of foundational knowledge about Aboriginal Peoples, cultures, histories and experiences. They were produced by Corporate Culcha Pty Ltd, an Aboriginal owned and operated business. Even those with experience of First Nation’s People will learn something new.
Marion G viewed these modules earlier with members of UCASE. They are informative and helpful to develop understanding of Aboriginal culture.
 
The modules are offered by Zoom  on  three successive evenings from May 30-June 1.  
Sessions are an hour long: 35 minutes for the module and 20 minutes or so for questions and discussion. You can join any or all the sessions. Just email Nathan to register – see link below:
MODULE 1: Monday May 30, 6.30pm
MODULE 2: Tuesday May 31, 6.30pm
MODULE 3: Wednesday June 1, 6.30pm
​
For more information contact Nathan Tyson, Manager First Peoples Strategy and Engagement.
