Join the Royal Hobart Hospital Research Foundation for Tasmania’s largest International Women’s Day event as we honour all women, while raising funds and awareness for medical research in Tasmania.

Renowned business leader and philanthropist, Thea Fairbrother, will be joining us as the guest speaker for this year’s event. Beginning her career as a nurse, Thea quickly changed direction to become the co-founder of Fairbrother – a national construction company. More recently she has been instrumental in driving initiatives to support improved mental health services in Tasmania, to make a lasting impact on those in need.

International Women’s Day is a global day of celebrating women's achievements, raising awareness of discrimination and challenging gender disparity.

The Royal Hobart Hospital Research Foundation's breakfast is the perfect opportunity to come together and commemorate whilst raising funds for medical research that benefits the local community and beyond.
