Local Health Chief to move onto Central Coast role

Scott McLachlan, Chief Executive of the Western NSW Local Health District, has an-nounced today that he will be leaving the region to take up the role of Chief Executive of the Central Coast Local Health District. “After eight years in this role, I believe it’s time for me to take on a new challenge, and to also allow a fresh leadership approach in this region,” said Mr McLachlan.

Mr McLachlan will depart on 10 November with interim leadership put in place well in advance of that date, and permanent re-cruitment to also commence during that time.

“While I’m looking forward to my new role, I will always be grateful to the people in our LHD team and communities who have supported me, and who I’ve learned so much from.”

Correction

The Cowra Phoenix wishes to correct an er-ror in an article it published last week. The Cowra Youth Peace Award is an initiative of the Australian Chapter of the World Peace Bell Association to commemorate the International Day of Peace. It is not organised by the Cowra Youth Council as incorrectly stated. Cowra Council and the Rotary Club of Cowra are pleased to support the World Peace Bell Association in hosting the Award.

The Cowra Youth Council is very proud of its members, Stassi Austin and Destiny Pepper, on receiving nominations for the 2021 Cowra Youth Peace Award.
