Volunteer News

Heathcote Health has implemented a new software program to help us engage our volunteers effectively and efficiently. This was made possible through a successful grant application to The Frances & Harold Abbott Foundation in 2013.

The Frances & Harold Abbott Foundation was established as a charitable trust on the death of prominent Bendigo businessman, Harold Athelstane Abbott who died in 1979. The trust’s purpose is to support charitable organisations.
