Rural communities are the lifeblood of our nation – the ones who keep the ball moving, week in and week out.

“Ensuring everyone, no matter where they live, has access to quality healthcare is a huge priority for The Hospital Research Foundation Group,” its CEO Paul Flynn says.
“We fund grants into regional hospitals, support grassroots health initiatives like Fat Farmers, provide accommodation to country cancer patients travelling to Adelaide, and so much more.
“We’re committed to helping country people thrive.”
