Jennie is a member and Secretary of the Rotary E-club of Melbourne. She joined the Eclub in 2016 after 16 years as a member of RC Bellerive in D9830. The reason for the switch was because her husband was ill and as his full time carer, could not get to ‘regular’ meetings

In D9830 Jennie served as an Assistant Governor 2013/14 and 2014/15, and was both President and Secretary of RC Bellerive, as well as being the Bulletin Editor for a number of years. She was awarded a PHF from that club, and also served on District teams for Bowel Scan and Youth Exchange.

Although her current club is in D9800, she is still very connected to clubs in D9830 and DG Tony Colman is happy for Jennie to be D9830 representative for EndTrachoma by 2020.

Jennie is now retired from the paid workforce, and enjoys gardening, travel and serving her community. She is also very involved with her church in a variety of ways. Having grown up in WA and spent time in the north of that state and in Central Australia, Jennie has seen first hand how Trachoma affects people. As a former nurse, she feel this is an area in which she can make a difference.
