Hunter Region Branch May 2024 Chair Update

Dear Hunter Region Branch members,

This newsletter comes to you as our activities for the year are starting to take shape.  Firstly, I want to recognise the efforts of the Student Chapter, which has arranged Students Meet Industry nights in both Newcastle and Armidale. Both were well attended and this bodes well for the future. Our Branch now has 547 members, including 102 students.

During May we have two opportunities for members to get together, one in Singleton and one in Newcastle. Both still have space available so please make an effort to attend. We are also progressing arrangements for the remainder of the year, and I look forward to seeing you at these events in person.

Welcome to two new committee members who have come forward to assist, Bethany Bent and Liam Kelly-Sigurdsson.
