Paul Nitas CEO Hillview Quarries visited the WOSP workshop and presented a defibrillator to President John Bayliss. The joint board of Hillview Quarries and the RE Ross Trust provided the grant for the defibrillator.
President John Bayliss said “That a recent health scare involving a member had put the club on notice that a defibrillator as well as members updating their first aid qualifications was urgently needed”. John also said “That their 85 members would feel a lot more at ease knowing that this life saving device would now be on hand should it be needed”.
In response a gift of a hand turned pen & desk set along with a certificate of appreciation was presented Paul thanking him on behalf of the members.
The woodworkers of the Southern Peninsula conduct a range of woodworking skills to both men & women of all ages at their workshop in Boneo Road. A special group the “Toy makers” spend 12 months crafting and painting toys that number between 800 and 1,000 each year. These toys are then distributed to agencies, Salvos, Westernport Giving Program, Southern Peninsula Food for All, and Good Shepherd Australia.
