Congratulations to John Bronger OAM for receiving his 50 Year Membership of the Guild! John has had a remarkable career in community pharmacy, including terms as the Guild's NSW Branch and National President. For his outstanding contributions, John was honoured with an OAM in 2011. Because John is currently overseas enjoying a very well-earned retirement, his daughter Catherine received the award on his behalf at our Parliamentary Reception.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at our Illawarra Member Reception on Thursday evening. It was a great opportunity for Guild members in the Illawarra to get to know our new branch committee and hear about the exciting developments taking place in scope of practice.

Our new Branch President Mario Barone visited Glover Chemist to present Barbara Glover with a 50 Year Life Membership this week. Barbara is a dedicated healthcare provider for all of those in Sydney's CBD. It was a delight to be able to celebrate her significant contributions to the Guild and her community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at our Parliamentary Reception this week. It was a pleasure to connect with MPs and Guild members and celebrate the work that pharmacists do to provide quality patient healthcare.
