Volunteers’ News – March 2013

Waste Not at Carriageworks is there until the end of this month. If you haven’t had a chance to see it yet, this is a fascinating insight into the life of a Chinese family, living through very hard times, and better ones, until recently. This is a free exhibition.

Thank you volunteers for responding to our February circular, and hopefully most problems can be sorted out.

It’s time for me to say farewell as Distribution Co-ordinator. I’ve truly enjoyed my interaction with all of you – you are legends in the South Sydney community. I know I had a big job following in Trevor’s tremendous networking skills and his commitment to the local area in all its diversity.

Goodbye also to Peter Lonergan, a good friend of Trevor’s who has decided to give up his longstanding SSH deliveries. Thank you, Peter. Best wishes to Jennifer Jungheim, who sustained foot and ankle injuries after falling into an RTA pothole, but was still prepared to continue delivering.

The new Distribution Co-ordinator will be Ross Smith, who many of you will know. Ross has been delivering some 1,500 copies of the SSH every month, and is a well-known community activist. If you have any problems or queries, please contact Ross (distro@ssh.com.au).

With best wishes to you all for continued success of the SSH for many years to come.
