From the cane fields of Macknade to bookshelves across Australia, Angelina Mastrippolito’s debut memoir Le Seconde: Inheriting the Unspoken has made an inspiring impact. Her hometown launch, held at TYTO Conference Centre in Ingham, was a moving and memorable event, with more than seventy people gathering to celebrate her success. Friends, family, childhood neighbours and past classmates filled the room to show their support, purchase a signed copy, and hear Angie speak about her journey. The w

Recently, the committee was able to drive their level of assistance even further when Brian and Theresa Hurley bequeathed an incredible $203,000 to the non-profit organisation.
After careful consideration, the committee decided to use the donation to purchase a vehicle, which they named "The Hurley Bus" in honour of the couple's generosity.
‘The Hurley Bus’ has already begun to transport frail and palliative patients in Ingham to and from medical appointments, and any other outings that passengers may like.
Currently the bus has done three trips, all have been medical but current President of Ingham Palliative Carers Committee Judy Cardillo wants the people of Ingham to know they offer more.
“We'll try to accommodate any plans anyone's got. That's what we're hoping to do. It's not just for trips to Townsville,” said Judy.
Judy is hoping that ‘The Hurley Bus’ makes it easier for people in Ingham to have access to transport.
Judy hopes to make frail, aged and palliative people gain access to more accessible transport and also aims to make the journey as pleasant as possible.
Every journey has a driver and an assistant who is there to ensure everyone has the best possible day. They have lots of volunteers for ‘The Hurley Bus’ and most are awaiting their first trip.
If you or anyone you know needs access to a vehicle, ‘The Hurley Bus’ is available for you, contact Judy Cardillo 0428 921 822.
