Service To Seniors Award
Rotary Hawthorn recognises the contribution of those who provide an outstanding service in a voluntary capacity to older members of our Boroondara community, with its Annual Service to Seniors Awards.
Each year there is a call for nominations where Rotarians and members of the public are able to nominate someone that they know, who is making a difference.
Ben Rogers is the CEO of COTA Victoria. Beginning his career with a pharmaceutical company in the UK during a period of legislative upheaval, Ben later joined Victoria’s public health peak body. These roles gave him key experiences across a range of policy issues, including delivering a state election campaign to support community health, developing a range of submissions and reports and supporting the organisation’s responses to the aged care and mental health Royal Commissions.
