And, they have been diligently raising funds to purchase much-needed equipment for Scott Memorial Hospital.
“Each year the hospital provides the auxiliary with a wish list of what is required,” SUHA president Helen Barwick said.
“Then we undertake several fundraisers to purchase them.”
Just recently, with money raised from community-backed donations, the Scone United Hospital Auxiliary bought a shower commode chair with a padded seat, and an electric mobile recliner chair.

Acting Health Service manager Nicole Briggenshaw was quick to praise the SUHA.
“The auxiliary play a big role in our hospital and we are very appreciative of all of their efforts to provide Scott Memorial Hospital with high-quality equipment,” she said.
