I am writing to express my appreciation of your outstanding contribution to the CARE Australia Dinner on Thursday, May 2. Your efforts during the auction ensured the evening was a great success for CARE Australia.
Sir William Dean
Chairman, CARE Australia
Phil, you must take a great deal of the credit for all the compliments we have received. The auction made more than reserve on every item and I have heard nothing but praise for you ‘expertise’. Everyone at the function has said that the Gala was the ‘best yet’ and are already looking forward to next year.

Hobart “tips in” for Heart Foundation
Monday, 1 July 2013
Jane and I attended the Heart Foundation of Tasmania annual Ball at Wrest Point last Saturday night. 500 people attended and generously paid for items such as fine wine from the Tassie region and trips to the Blue Mountains and the Federal Group’s Luxury resort Sapphire on the Freycinet Coast to name a few. They also supported the pledge for DNA testing for cardiac problems in young children. Over 100 pledges were received which was terrific. Congratulations to Graeme, Melita and the team at the Heart Foundation who did a wonderful job staging the event.
We especially want to thank our v good friends and sponsors Tim and Jill Johnstone and all the team at Edward Windsor Real Estate who looked after us beautifully.
