Local women donate to cemetery
FNQ Tablelands Inner Wheel Club has completed its project to mark the centenary of Inner Wheel by installing a bench seat with shade trees in the Angels Rest section of Atherton Cemetery.
The bench seat was made possible with a grant from the Mt Emerald Community Benefit Fund and Tablelands Regional Council which provided the bench seat and its installation, as well as planting trees at either end of the bench.
Guilfoyle Funeral Services also donated and attached a memorial plaque to the seat.
Inner Wheel is an international organisation that supports community service through various projects and initiatives with emphasis on education, health, disaster relief and community development.
They also focus on empowering women, children and marginalised groups.
The organisation has local, national and international levels as well as having seven consultative seats at the United Nations Assembly.
“Getting involved with Inner Wheel projects is a great way to make a positive impact on your community,” Inner Wheel Tablelands president Jenny Todd said.
“We are always open to new members.”
