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.

VSK debate moved to the Pier
Saturday, 3 August 2019
This year’s annual footy fever debate hosted by Very Special Kids moved from the G to Docklands. The wonderful crowd gave so generously through the auction and the traditional pledge raising over 100k for the hospice in Malvern that cares for children with life threatening conditions.
