A vintage car enthusiast’s lasting legacy
A generous bequest from a vintage car enthusiast will enhance health services in Edenhope and Harrow.
All proceeds from an auction of 600 items, including dozens of impressive vintage cars, will be split between Grampians Health Edenhope and Harrow Bush Nursing Centre.
Hundreds of people travelled to Harrow, to view the items, before an online auction that attracted interest from interstate and overseas.
Competitive bidding ensued, with two vehicles selling for more than $20,000.
“This collection was such a generous gift to our local health services, and the lasting legacy is improved health outcomes for our local communities,” Grampians Health Chief People Officer Claire Woods said.
“We are extremely grateful for the donation, which will go toward Edenhope projects and equipment that are identified as the greatest need.
“We are also grateful to Harrow Bush Nursing Centre staff, particularly manager Ann Vaughan, for working hard to meet the donor’s wishes and carry out a successful auction.”
Grampians Health Edenhope extends a heartfelt thank you to the family members, staff and volunteers involved.
