National Council update

At our recent 2019 Annual General Meeting, we announced some changes to the National Council for the coming year.

Beth Watson and Tony Treloar both retired from council at the meeting.

Beth (pictured with Steve Green) came to MND New Zealand in 2001 as the National Executive Officer, and was also part of the previous Wellington committee. In 2007 Beth joined National Council and held the role of President for six years.

Tony Treloar joined Council in 2016, out of a desire to help, bringing with him valuable experience in marketing and business management.

We thank both Beth and Tony for their time, effort and commitment to improving the lives of people living with MND during their time on council, and wish them the best for the future.

Greg Horton and Anna Chalmers were appointed as Co-chairpersons and Lucy Haberfield was appointed as Secretary/Treasurer.

Five new National Council members were welcomed at the meeting; Nick Molcsan, Caron Palmer, Chris Drennan, Michael Fuyala and Wayne Philip. We look forward to benefiting from their ideas and insights over the coming year.
