Sunshine Coast resident Jocelyn Walker has being appointed the inaugural Vice Patron for LifeFlight’s Sunshine Coast and South Burnett region.
Ms Walker was the founding chair of the RACQ LifeFlight Rescue Sunshine Coast and South Burnett Regional Advisory Committee and has spent seven years as a company member.
“I feel truly honoured to be offered this new role in recognition of my long history with LifeFlight,” Ms Walker said.
“Being an inaugural position makes it rather special for me and I look forward to continuing to support the advocacy and leadership of this vital service across our region.
“I support LifeFlight because I truly believe this service is one that is very much-needed in our region.”
As Vice Patron, Ms Walker will continue to work with the Regional Advisory Committee to foster strong community connections.
“Jocelyn has been an invaluable supporter of RACQ LifeFlight Rescue over the years, and was the guiding force behind projects which provided community funding for the major upgrade of the Sunshine Coast base three years ago,” LifeFlight Board Chairman Rob Borbidge AO said.
“Most recently, Jocelyn was vital in bringing the community together to raise funds for a $54,300 Zephyr Hoist Tool for the base and three night vision goggle helmets.
“She tirelessly champions RACQ LifeFlight Rescue within the Sunshine Coast and South Burnett communities and will continue to do so in her new role as Vice Patron.”
