NSW members only
I wanted to share some information from Kathy Wells who is Head of Policy, Research and Advocacy at BCNA.
BCNA is a member of the Lymphoedema Action Alliance (LAA), a group of more than 20 organisations working to improve services for people with lymphoedema. LAA is currently coordinating a NSW campaign to lobby the State Government to employ more lymphoedema therapists and make more information available about services.
As part of the campaign LAA is looking for people who live in NSW who are willing to write to their local MP during the first two weeks of November. If that's you, contact Di Treble at BCNA dtreble@bcna.org.au by Friday 6 November providing your email and phone number.
Lastly, if you are from Melbourne and you are a Spring Racing fan I hope you have your outfit sorted and your facinator ready. Any tips for the Melbourne Cup? send me a message 
Have a lovely weekend
