ROMP July Forum… “the most successful yet…”

Rotary Myeloma Outreach and fellowship were the big winners at the July ROMP Forum on Tuesday 27th July. – the most successful yet held.
There were twenty-five Rotarians and friends of Rotary in the virtual “room” courtesy of ZOOM. They came from many corners of Victoria to support the cause of people living with myeloma in their own regions. (Country people need and deserve the same support at those who live in Greater Melbourne.)  Nine Rotary Clubs from five of Victoria’s nine country regions were represented -

Wimmera – Rotary Clubs of Horsham, Horsham East, Nhill and Warracknabeal
Great Southern Coast – Rotary Club of Warrnambool Central
Southern Highlands -  Rotary Club of Alfredton (Ballarat)
Loddon Campaspe – Rotary Clubs of Eaglehawk and Rochester
Gippsland – Rotary Club of Traralgon Central.
We were delighted to welcome six new Rotary Presidents to ROMP -
Camberwell - Patrick Docherty, Nhill – Helen Teakle, Rochester – Heather Watson,
Traralgon Central – Warren McPherson, Warracknabeal – John Aitkin,
Horsham East – Pam Clarke.
We wish each of  them every success for their service journey and look forward to their support for the Rotary Outreach Myeloma Program.  “No myeloma patient is to live more than one hour from a myeloma support team”
