The team at Canowindra Tyre Service rolled out the 'welcome mat' for visiting doctors attending the VMO Conference.
Canowindra Welcomes 32 Doctors To Town For GP VMO Conference
Last weekend Canowindra played host to 32 rural and remote doctors, who travelled from as far as Warialda, Gunnedah and Wellington to take part in a two-day Rural GP Visiting Medical Officer (VMO) Conference hosted by Rural Doctors Network. Working across private general practice rooms and local hospitals, the doctors had the unique opportunity to participate in a comprehensive program of learning, networking and professional development that was designed by GP VMOs, for GP VMOs. Attendees heard from an impressive lineup of eight leading specialists from Orange who shared practical insights and the latest clinical updates across a range of dis-
ciplines directly relevant to VMO practice including ENT, infectious diseases, oncology, ophthalmology, urology, respiratory medicine and cardiology. RDN's Conference and Events Manager Lindsey Eifler said the GP VMO Conference offered a unique opportunity for GP VMOs to come together for relevant, practical education while catching up with colleagues in a relaxed and supportive environment. “They could talk through real-world clinical challenges, ask non-GP specialists their burning questions, and share experiences with others who understand the realities of rural practice,” Ms Eifler said.

Continued from page 1 Canowindra also had the opportunity to celebrate one of its own during the conference. Each year this event is held in a different rural community to bring rural doctors together and celebrate their service, and Dr Nicholas O'Ryan was honoured for the four decades he has spent serving the community of Canowindra and surrounds. “It was wonderful to celebrate Dr O’Ryan and honour his 40-year dedication to rural medicine and the town of Canowindra, especially amongst peers,” Ms Eifler said. “Bringing the conference to Canowindra also gave us the opportunity to showcase a wonderful rural community and enjoy the hospitality, history and country charm that towns like this do so well,” she said. Rural Doctors Network sincerely thanks Cabonne Council for sponsoring this event.

LETTERS Dear Editor Dementia is Australia’s leading cause of death, but it’s not talked about nearly enough. An estimated 446,500 Australians are living with dementia right now and in 40 years that number is projected to reach more than one million. To see meaningful change, dementia needs a national spotlight. Australia has learned how to talk openly about heart disease, cancer and mental health, and we've seen the difference that can make. Now it's time to bring dementia into everyday conversation. That’s why this Dementia Action Week (21 – 27 September) Dementia Australia is asking every Australian to help create change, one conversation at a time. This week, we want everyone in Australia to know that help exists. Community exists. Support exists. Information exists. Demen-
tia Australia can connect people to all of it. One conversation about dementia could be what helps someone find their way to us. To get involved in Dementia Action Week, visit www.dementia.org.au/dementia-action-week For dementia support and information contact the National Dementia Helpline any time on 1800 100 500 or visit dementia.org.au. It’s free, confidential and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Yours Sincerely, Merran Kelsall AO Chair Dementia Australia

$60,000 For Rural And Regional Students As Newmont Cadia Partners With Country Education Foundation Students from Orange, Blayney and Canowindra seeking to pursue university or vocational education and training have extra financial backing after Newmont Cadia have pledged $60,000 in scholarships through the Country Education Foundation (CEF). The partnership will offer two Newmont Cadia-CEF Scholarships worth $10,000 each, per year, for up to 3 years, commencing from the 2027 academic year. Both scholarships are open to students aged 16-25 who are from or went to school in Orange, Blayney or Canowindra, with one scholarship preferencing First Nations students. Students must first apply to their relevant, CEF local foundation – either CEF Orange and District or CEF Canowindra, to receive a local grant, to then become eligible for the Newmont Cadia-CEF Scholarships. Country Education Foundation CEO Ms Wendy Mason said CEF was delighted to partner with Newmont Cadia, with both organisations sharing a belief that rural and regional students should have the opportunity to pursue their preferred career pathways, regardless of their postcode. “For more than two decades, Cadia has made a significant impact on the social and economic wellbeing of communities across the Central West,” Ms Mason said. “As one of Australia's largest gold and copper mining operations, it has made a lasting contribution through support for local jobs, businesses, schools, health services, community organisations, and regional infrastructure. “Importantly, this commitment extends to education, with Newmont Cadia supporting a range of programs that help local students to achieve their goals and realise

their potential. Ms Mason noted the partnership would support investment in regional skills development likely filling vital skills gaps. “We know that around 97% of CEF-supported students are considering returning to rural and regional Australia after graduating to utilise their skills in the communities that shaped them,” Ms Mason said. Newmont Cadia's Director, People, Nicola Searle said Newmont is committed to supporting opportunities that help local young people achieve their education and career aspirations. "We know there is incredible talent and potential across our region, and we're proud to support initiatives that help remove barriers to further education and training. "Through our partnership with the Coun-
try Education Foundation, Newmont is helping students access opportunities that can open doors for their future while strengthening the communities we all call home. "By investing in education today, we're supporting the next generation of leaders, professionals and skilled workers who will contribute to the future success of the region." For students to be eligible for the Newmont Cadia-CEF Scholarships they must first receive a local grant through either the CEF Orange and District or CEF Canowindra local foundations. Local grants close on 31 October. Local students can visit the CEF Canowindra page for further information or to submit their application for a local foundation grant at: www.cef.org.au/foundations/canowindra

Congratulations to the members of Carcoar Sailing Club on their award.
Carcoar Crowned NSW/ACT Club Of The Year At Australian Sailing Awards
Last Saturday 19 September at the Kirribilli Royal Yacht Squadron, Carcoar Sailing Club was named 2026 NSW/ACT Club of the Year, taking the top honour from fellow nominees Hunters Hill Sailing Club and Saltwater Veterans Sailing Project. Rene Reimers, Commodore of the Club and Australian Sailing Coach said the award reflected what the club had been working towards for the past 4 years, moving from 7 to almost 90 members. “For a small inland club from the Central West to receive this recognition across NSW and the ACT is something we're incredibly proud of. “We want to open the doors of sailing to our regional communities. You shouldn't have to live on the coast to discover this sport. We would love people from across the Central West to come out to Carcoar
Dam, meet us and see what sailing is all about.” The club's programs are designed to cater for beginners through to experienced sailors, juniors and adults, with an emphasis on grassroots participation and practical sailing skills. As State finalists, Carcoar Sailing Club will progress as finalist in Category B for ‘Sailing Club of the Year’ at the National Australian Sailing Awards on 30 October 2026 at the Sofitel Hotel in Darling Harbour. For a volunteer-run sailing club from the Central West, the national nomination provides an opportunity to showcase not only Carcoar Dam Sailing Club, but the potential for sailing and community sport throughout regional NSW. For more information about sailing and the club go to: www.sailcarcoar.com.au.
