Our very first home for the aged in Cairns, FARNORHA, (the first buildings of which were completed in 1972), was the result of community efforts and fund raising. By March 1980, 13 buildings at Farnorha housed 70 citizens with the complex valued then at a conservative $1 million. Not one cent was owing on it either. Former Cairns Post Editor, ALAN HUDSON, in his book, "Growing Up With Cairns" (P. 103) describes it as "Literally dozens of Cairns people became involved in one of the greatest fund-raising efforts this city has ever seen." I vividly recall when retired men and women operated two city car-parking areas, with all proceeds going towards the home.<br />In more recent years,the community came together to support COUCH in its efforts to raise funds for the much needed radiotherapy and oncology unit at the Base Hospital. Some of those funds today provide a bus service taking cancer patients from the Mayo Lodge to the Liz Plummer Centre.Alison Allowaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-42705214090337928452015-02-13T22:03:06.482+10:002015-02-13T22:03:06.482+10:00WTF did you say Shanghai, will you hurry up and ge...WTF did you say Shanghai, will you hurry up and get pissed so we can all have a laugh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-19361911813880538672015-02-13T19:04:11.438+10:002015-02-13T19:04:11.438+10:00The age of entitlement is upon us and QLDers have ...The age of entitlement is upon us and QLDers have 'kicked the can down the road'(a lot like Greece) and betrayed future generations by ignoring the need to make tough, hard fiscal decisions(like long term lease backs).
