Dining Room\u201d in honour of the ex-President of Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate the occasion, current Kingaroy Hospital Canteen volunteers were invited to a morning tea with Dr Mullins.<\/p>\n<p>Auxiliary president Sandra Beetham said that \u201cback in 1991 Dr Mullins was instrumental in re-establishing the Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary Inc to run a canteen at Kingaroy Hospital in the old Farrhome building&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The canteen provided meals to hospital staff, patients and the general public; and proceeds raised were used to provide furnishings and equipment for Kingaroy Hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr Mullins served as president of the Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary until late 2011 when poor health forced him to retire.<\/p>\n<p>Without his vision, perseverance and dedication, Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary would never have fundraised gross receipts of $1 million and then contributed $224,000 worth of equipment and amenities to Kingaroy Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a great achievement for 21 years of volunteer work, without mentioning the<br \/>\n1500 odd jars of apple marmalade jam that he cooked to raise funds for the Auxiliary,&#8221; Auxiliary treasurer Alison Murray said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr Mullins also campaigned tirelessly to get the Renal Unit at Kingaroy Hospital; and together with Pamela Lincoln and a small committee produced two wonderful recipe books which can be purchased at the Kingaroy Hospital Canteen or Kingaroy Tourist Information Centre.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Kingaroy Hospital Auxiliary Inc, together with QCWA Kumbia, donated a $10,500 bladder scanner to Kingaroy Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The Auxiliary contributed about $4400 towards the cost of the machine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018The Auxiliary has donated $7800 for the purchase of two Observation Machines at Kingaroy Hospital and they should arrive shortly,&#8221; Alison said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These donations would not be possible without the hard work of our Kingaroy Hospital Canteen volunteers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Canteen is open Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 2:00pm and monies raised are used to purchase equipment for Kingaroy Hospital and to support services associated with the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The Auxiliary\u2019s Canteen Convenor, David Morton, is always keen to hear from those wishing to help in the canteen on (07) 4162-9199.<\/p>\n<p>The Auxiliary welcomes new members to its Meetings which are held on on the third Thursday of every month at 5:00pm in the Kingaroy Hospital Canteen.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_90851\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90851\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-90851\" title=\"Mullins Dining Room\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins5.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins5-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-90851\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alison Murray gave a small talk detailing the contribution Dr Julian Mullins, above, has made to the Hospital Auxiliary over the years<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"3\" cellpadding=\"3\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_90855\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90855\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-90855\" title=\"Mullins Dining Room\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins4.jpg 290w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/20141201mullins4-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-90855\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Auxiliary recipes &#8230;
