Their contribution is a significant step toward the purchase of a Denyer XRT5000 operating theatre table for Yarrawonga Health’s brand-new theatre.
Australian-designed and manufactured, the Denyer XRT5000-ST is a world-class, slide-top general surgery table suitable for a wide range of procedures including orthopaedic, bariatric, gynaecological, cardiothoracic, neurosurgery, ophthalmic, urological, plastic, laparoscopic, endoscopic, and general surgery.
Yarrawonga Mulwala Inner Wheel was also delighted to donate $2500 to the Community Heart Appeal for equipment for the new theatre and main entrance development of Yarrawonga Health.
The money was raised by an Op Shop fashion parade and afternoon tea, involving Yarrawonga Community Op Shop and Vinnies Mulwala.
The Inner Wheel Club would like to thank Club Mulwala and the op shops involved for their help and expertise.
Also thanks to local businesses, Leo Kelly Wines, Rich Glen, Essenza Spa, Sarah Pidgon and support from the general public.

The cost of the operating table is $90,000, and thanks to the golf club's donation, along with the support of many individuals, schools, businesses, and community groups, $76,000 has already been raised.
This puts Yarrawonga Health well within reach of its goal, however they are still calling on the community to help bridge the final gap.
Every donation, big or small, plays a part in delivering state-of-the-art surgical services to the region.
